[!] Text = Cannot unregister the machine 'Fedora Core

[sanemanmad]

Hello All,

Thank you for reading this post. I am simply trying to re-assign my physical drive to my VM using this command:

Code: Select all

VBoxManage modifyvm "Fedora Core" -hda "./var/vbox/fc10.vdi"

when i receive this error:

Code: Select all

[!] FAILED calling machine->AttachHardDisk2(uuid, StorageBus::IDE, 0, 0) at line 1891!
[!] Primary RC  = VBOX_E_OBJECT_IN_USE (0x80BB000C) - Object being in use prohibits operation

[!] Callee      = IMachine, {ea6fb7ea-1993-4642-b113-f29eb39e0df0}

The cause of this was during my first go-around i created a too small partition and needed to reregister my VM, now it is stuck, can someone point me in the right direction to unmount fc.vdi from my VM?
