Before the upgrade, I got "unknown option --resize", which upon further reading indicates that it's just not there in v3.x. OK, happy with that. The alternatives are a little painful for this day and age so upgrading to v4.04 took little convincing.
Code: Select all
$ VBoxManage --version
4.0.4r70112
BUT... now when I try to run it, I get:
Code: Select all
$ VBoxManage modifyhd windows7x64.vdi --resize 40960
0%...
Progress state: VBOX_E_NOT_SUPPORTED
VBoxManage: error: Resize hard disk operation for this format is not implemented yet!
Code: Select all
$ VBoxManage showhdinfo windows7x64.vdi

Now, I've checked other posts and haven't done something silly like "tried to make it 40M instead of 40G" so I figured it's something else silly that I've missed.
Anyone?
