Convert VMware-Player vmdk to VirtualBox ?

Post by bdutta »

Hi,

I found some old/dated how-to's on converting VMware-Player vmdk disk image to Virtualbox disk image format, but can someone confirm if there is a newer mechanism to be used ? In 3.x I think there was a mechanism to import the vmdk files, but in 4.x I see that there is no such option.

thanks,
bdutta

Thank you @stefan.becker ! One shouldn't work too late in the night without coffee :).
The option was right there, and I missed it completely.
