Autostart VM on debian 7.7 virtualbox 4.3.20
Posted: 18. Dec 2014, 12:00
Hello.
I want to autostart virtual machine when system boot (but It seems like autostart possible only after host login. Is it true?). I used manuals:
{oops It is my first post so links not allowed, I left here only virtualbox manual}
9.23.1. Linux: starting the autostart service via init
All of them give same idea. I make all steps, but unfortunately, after reboot and login I do not see my virtual machine started in gnome environment.
I use VirtualBox 4.3.20 r96996 amd64 on Debian 7.7 (64) host. But I work with this machine and cannot reboot it too often. So I create virtual machine with debian 7.7 (its name Java, guest additions installed) and install virtualbox on it. I create vm with name TEST and not install anything on it. Just want to see it started in vm window.
May be I miss somewhere... because I much more comfortable with windows, but the last time I have some tasks, where linux seems good. Now the question how to make it work?
