VBox on non boot (D:,E:,F:...) drive

Post by ludimasinac »

Hi all,
me again.

Is there possibility to install guest machine on other partition than boot?
Because I want to dedicate guest machine more than 30 GB of disk space.
Or maybe to copy image file to other partiton.

Also, must I install graphic drivers on guest machine same as on host machine or VB install some integrated drivers?
