Location of vdi file changed and receive error
Posted: 6. Aug 2012, 18:19
I migrated to a new Macbook Pro and cannot open my Windows XP session as I receive the error Could not open the medium '/Users/files/Library/VirtualBox/HardDisks/Windows Environement.vdi'
When I migrated the migration assistant put in a direct with my name; e.g. /Users/<my name>/Library/.... So since VirtualBox is looking to open the vdi file with the location referenced above it cannot find it. How do I change the location path the Windows XP is trying to read?
I saw an article and ticket# 9662 saying this was fixed by creating a soft link 'xp vm clone' to the correct directory. How do you create this soft link? Will it have issues in the future or is there another solution?
Any help greatly appreciated!
