unknown filesystem type vboxfs

Post by jwizardc »

I have installed the guest extensions. I created a share. I created the directory. When I type:

sudo mount -t vboxfs test /test

I get the above error message.

Thenks for your help.

Wrong: sudo mount -t vboxfs test /test
Right: sudo mount -t vboxsf test /test

vboxfs is used only in Solaris AFAIK
