Installing Guest Additions on a mac os x host
Posted: 14. Aug 2012, 16:46
The iso file for the guest additions is located under the Virtualbox.app directory.
When you want to mount it as a cdrom in the configuration of the virtual machine, you can't open the directory.app.
So you have to first use the finder, in the application directory, you go to the virtualbox.qpp file, right click on it to show the content of the package, and under Contents/MacOs, you will find the iso file for VBoxGuestAdditions.iso.
Copy it to the desktop and mount it now.
Hope this helps.
