I've done a bit more analysis and the second DHCP OFFER is not coming from the cable modem. I was confused by the hitron.home domain name in the packet. The first OFFER is coming from my dnsmasq server. I intended to set this up as the DHCP server on the network and to serve installation images on t...

I am running on a iMac host with a wired network. It is wired directly into my cable modem and this is where the second OFFER is coming from. The modem is a Hitron CGNM-2250. It has an IP Passthrough feature but it's disabled. I am assuming this is different than DHCP Passthrough. The iMac also has ...

I guess I wasn't clear enough. This is a virtual NAT network setup inside VirtualBox not a real NAT network. It has the default settings: Name: NatNetwork CIDR: 10.0.2.0/24 Supports DHCP: Yes Supports IPv6: No Port Forwarding: No I tried disabling DHCP on NatNetwork but it had no affect. Have I foun...

I am trying to use a private NAT Network to configure VMs using DHCP. The DHCP on this private network is another VirtualBox VM running Debian. I am using a private network to prevent interactions with my regular network's DHCP server but it doesn't seem to be working. After the client does a DHCP R...

I don't believe that Guest Additions was ever installed on VMware. Is there a way to verify?

I am running an Ubuntu 16.04.2 guest on a Mac host. I am migrating a VMware Fusion VM from another Mac: Creating a new VM using an existing disk. Pointed disk at VMWare Fusion's .vmdk. Memory set to 2048M. Defaults for everything else. The VM boots fine but when I run ifconfig on the guest it only f...

Actually, the PXE boot installs a pristine operating system. It would work on a blank hard drive. The system I am cloning is a working system that I want to preserve but I would like to set up a new system that I can overwrite but with the same network setup.

I have a pre-configured VM that I would like to clone. I don't care about the contents of the hard-drive since I will be doing a PXE install right afterwards. Having the hard-drive configuration (i.e. dynamic vs. fixed and maximum size) would be useful but not necessary. The network configuration is...

I enabled EFI (whatever that means) and then it worked without having to downgrade GParted. I had to disable it again to boot the Debian guest.

I am trying to resize my .vdi file. I have successfully resized the .vdi using VBoxManage. Now I am trying to edit the partition table using GParted but it won't start the GUI. I would attach Xorg.0.log but it's only saved on the live disk and it isn't available after I stop it. I see it trying to l...

Yeah, that was the problem. It worked after running: Thanks.

I have upgraded to the version on virtualbox.org. Listing hostonlyifs gives the following. VBoxManage list hostonlyifs Name: vboxnet0 GUID: 786f6276-656e-4074-8000-0a0027000000 DHCP: Disabled IPAddress: 10.0.0.1 NetworkMask: 255.0.0.0 IPV6Address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:0800:27ff:fe00:0000 IPV6NetworkM...

I am trying to create a a Debian 8 (64-bit) guest on an Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit) host. I am using the following parameters: 454 GB Hard disk (VDI, dynamically allocated) 4 Processors, 64 bit 1941 MB RAM It's using the following network configuration: VBoxManage modifyvm "AchillesVM" --nic1 br...

Cloning worked great. I cloned it, expanded using 'modifyhd', then resized the partition from within Windows.

I want to resize my Windows 7 guest but I am reading that it's not possible to that if there are snapshots. That's my situation. How can I get around this? Can I merge the snapshot? Or rollback to to the snapshot? Or something else? Or is it impossible?
