VBoxManage modifyvm --hda option not listed in manual

Post by nisargshah95 »

I don't see --hda option for VBoxManage modifyvm command listed anywhere in the VirtualBox manual (version 5.1.38), yet it seems to work.

What would the "--hda" option do? What do you want to do?

Perhaps an obsolete form of the current "--audiocontroller ac97 | hda | sb16" command. E.g. something like "modifyvm --hda off".
