Hello-All,
Anybody have experience with VB? I have a good running Ubuntu
10.10 and wanted to try Mint 11 as a 2nd OS. Since Ubuntu went to
((unity)) it's no longer a friendly distro!!
When I try to click ADD in VB menu for a new OS, this is the response:
Cannot create the machine folder mint in the parent folder C:/Users/user
only me/VirtualBox VMs. Please check that the parent really exists and
that you have permissions to create the machine folder.
From all the sites I've visited, I see nothing regarding this
problem. NOW, I have Mint installed and running OK, in Admin. mode??
Which I never use, only work in standard mode, where I have Ubuntu 10.10
installed and running OK....Why can't I add Mint in standard mode?
I see all the screen shots on various sites of multiple OS"s
installed in ONE instance of VirtualBox..
What am I missing here??
Thanks for help/suggestions.
John in Dallas.
