That sounds like a sparse file operation to me. Which I would normally use for most situations, but since you explicitly said you created the file using a dd command which isn't sparse... Maybe you wanted a fully allocated disk? If it is sparse now, and you want it fully allocated, I think there's only one way to fill it now... Which is to fill the disk on the guest side. For example, install cygwin on windows, and then run: dd if=/dev/zero of=junk.file bs=1024k ; rm junk.file _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
