Code: Select all
mount -t vboxsf <shared_name> mountpoint
I ran the shared folder as root, which got rid of the pop-up about permissions, so I assumed I could go and do stuff with the files in the shared folder. After trying to save changes I made, it gave me another error pop-up, and the changes were not saved. The only thing I can do with the shared folder on the Linux Guest machine was create new files, and that's it.
I even tried to add myself to the "vboxsf" group from the Linux, and it got rid of more of the pop-ups about permissions when opening the shared folder from the files app, but it wouldn't remove the permissions pop-up I get whenever I try making changes to files in the shared folder.
What in the world am I supposed to do?
