Oracle virtualbox shared folder6/3/2023 ![]() When I issue mount -a AFTER I have edited the fstab I can sometimes get it to work. None of them reproduce the correct content in / srv. ![]() I read there is an issue with filesystems being mounted before virtualbox utilities are loaded, so I added vboxsf to my /etc/modules and then repeated the steps above. I've edited /etc/fstab to look like this: share /srv vboxsf defaults 0 0Īfter doing this I used the command mount -a, also I rebooted, and I rebooted again with the virtualbox shared folder settings to NOT auto-mount. I want to move the mount point from /media/sf_share to simply /srv so that on my windows host I can edit files and they show up under /srv. Virtualbox mounts the shared folder in /media/sf_share (the name I gave to the shared folder in the virtualbox settings was share). ![]() I have a test.txt file that I created in Windows and it shows up appropriately in my Ubuntu VM. I have a shared folder set up between virtualbox and my windows 7 host machine.
