running virtualbox with no snapshot?

Post by phx7 »

stupid question, but I deleted my snapshots manually because they were taking up too much space, now I cant start the machine because it is looking for one of the snapshots I deleted. How do I run the machine without that snapshot? I looked around and couldnt find an option.

thanks

You could try to restore the deleted snapshots and then delete them the right way.
Or you can edit the control files and get rid of the snapshot information.

there is no straight forward way to boot without a snapshot?
well I did a ghetto fix by creating a new machine and use the same hard drive file...
