[RESOLVED]After migrating guest centos from vmware to vbo

Post by windstory »

My host os is windows7 x64.
I have migrated centos 5.2 x86 on raw disk from vmware using vmware's vmdk.

Successfully loaded but there are several problems.

1. I want to change network interface NAT to host interface for changing ip 10.0.2.15 to 192.1668.0.x. So I added network adpater 2 with host interface, but could not see host interface or virtualbox's network symbol at windows network connection.

2. Even I installed vboxlinuxadditoins, the video resolition is imited at 1024x768.


3. Copy and paste is disable between host and guests.


4. After selecting vt-x/amd-v, vbox hangs.

Please let me know how can solve these.

vt-x/amd-v, vbox hang probelm solved.

After changing network adapter 2's adapter type into internal network, reboot centos. Reinstall vboxlinixadditions, and check up vt-x/amd-v.

Use HIF if you want to make your VM a part of the network. Since 2.1.0, there is a new HIF system that can use the interface directly, like with MS VPC.

Dear Sasquatch,

Thanks for your kind reply.

I have tried HIF to 192.168.0.11, but it could not make ping.
Anyway I will try to set up HIF again.


After changing into HIF, eth0 cannot get ip address as shown in screen shot.

I solved to change eth0's IP to 192.168.0.x.

For other's reference I leave my experience.


I have IP share router IPtime Q204 - http://www.iptime.co.kr/main.phtml?lang ... rs&m3=q204.

At this configuration page entering into 192.168.0.1, I set up DMZ for 192.168.0.5 of centos - guest.

And at centos, I selected HIF only. After boot, I checked "ifconfig".

There is "192.168.0.5"
