vbox-img convert Snapshot: VERR_VD_INVALID_TYPE
Posted: 24. Dec 2016, 12:49
Hi.
I need to pipe a snapshot image using raw output format. The only tool that supports writing to stdout is vbox-img, but it cannot open snapshot images.
VBoxManage can open snapshot images, but it cannot pipe them.
I'm stuck, please help.
