Error creating Raw Disk VMDK [Solved]
Posted: 27. May 2008, 21:51
I get the following error when trying to create a Raw Disk VMDK.
Error code VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND at /home/vbox/vbox-1.6.0/src/VBox/Devices/Storage/VmdkHDDCore.cpp(2474) in function int vmdkCreateRawImage(VMDKIMAGE*, VBOXHDDRAW*, uint64_t)
Error while creating the raw disk VMDK: VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
This error is in responce to my command line entry as follows:
sudo VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename /bill/.virtualbox/VDI-Files/Mint.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdb
I have 1.6.0 version intalled and get a list of cammande when I type
VBoxManage internalcommans at the prompt.
Any help would be most apprreciated.
I have Hardy 8.04 (32) bit installed and wish to access another Linux OS on my second drive.
Thanks

Found the problem! What a dummy. I had overlooked the upper case letters used in the .VirtualBox foldeer. That solved the problem.
