Secondary Master can't boot

Post by word20 »

I have once installed virtual box and deleted primary master by accident. Now I only have secondary master and when I add a linux distribution it cannot boot.
How do you get the primary master back? How do you use secondary master so you can boot from a secondary master?

If you go to the VM Settings » Storage » select the HD/CD in question, to the right there's a drop-down box. Choose the option that fits your needs, for example Primary Master.
