windows did not shut down cleanly...
fix: boot into windows power off properly.
boot back into Linux add vmdk as per usual. no issues.
thnx

Re: Can't use a raw host hard/flash disk image
shouldn't we be able to do this without logging in as root? i was previously able to do so. lost my main HDD, had to reinstall Ubuntu (so I took the opportunity to update from 15.10 to 16.04), and now with all new updates I can no longer add a physical drive as a VM... why? what am I missing? thanks...
