Tried vbooxtool without success.
vboxtool autostart works great via ssh but fails to start at boot.
Also I tried other approaches like adding in /etc/rc.local
- Code: Select all Expand viewCollapse view
nohup exec /bin/su -c 'VBoxManage startvm --type headless XP' user >/dev/null 2>&1
And finally creating a vboxbootXP.sh file with
- Code: Select all Expand viewCollapse view
nohup VBoxHeadless --startvm "XP" --vrdp=config &
and adding it to the crontab
- Code: Select all Expand viewCollapse view
@reboot /home/user/vboxbootXP.sh
I'm running out of ideas, please help me with this one with an easy way to start a headless vm in ubuntu.
Many thanks in advance
