Eee Pc 701 + VirtualBox + USB HD: Is it possible?
Posted: 16. Apr 2009, 23:42
Hi everybody I'm a happy owner of an Asus EeePc 701 and of course you know that it has only 4G of hard disk. I installed a lighter legal version of Windows XP Pro SP2 that leaves, after installing some basic software, something more that 1G. Sometimes I need to use Ubuntu for software developing and testing and I tried several ways to use it like installing it on a SDHC Card or on a pen drive but performances were really bad. Then I thought: I can use VirtualBox to guest Ubuntu!! But there's not enought space of the HD, but i have an external usb disk of 160G. I tried to create a new Virtual Disk using that usb disk but it's not working.. I've the PUEL version of virtualbox 2.2.0.
The error is the following:
"Unable to allocate and lock memory. The virtual machine will be paused. Please close applications to free up memory or close the VM.
Error ID: HostMemoryLow "
I'm getting crazy to fix this problem
