Re: [VBOX] Failure while attaching the physical hard drive to the guest

I have a Linux guest with VDI hard drive.
I want to attach the physical (on host) hard drive to this guest.
So I created the ada3.vmdk pointing to /dev/ada3:
VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ada3.vmdk -rawdisk
/dev/ada3
Then I ran this command to attach ada3.vmdk to the machine Mint-mate-32:
VBoxManage storageattach Mint-mate-32 --storagectl SATA --port 1
--device 0 --type hdd --medium /home/yuri/VirtualBox
VMs/Mint-mate-32/ada3.vmdk
This added another HardDrive in Mint-mate-32.vbox:
HardDisk uuid={408da1c6-8939-42d3-a03b-da6d3c4d36ad}
location=ada3.vmdk format=VMDK type=Normal/
And also this hard drive's description under StorageController
name=SATA type=AHCI PortCount=2 useHostIOCache=false
Bootable=true IDE0MasterEmulationPort=0 IDE0SlaveEmulationPort=1
IDE1MasterEmulationPort=2 IDE1SlaveEmulationPort=3:
AttachedDevice type=HardDisk port=1 device=0
Image uuid={408da1c6-8939-42d3-a03b-da6d3c4d36ad}/
/AttachedDevice
However, this machine fails to start now: VERR_ACCESS_DENIED on ada3.vmdk
No further explanation, except NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Log provides no further insight also.
Hard drive is recognized by the host system as:
ada3 at ahcich7 bus 0 scbus7 target 0 lun 0
ada3: WDC WD1600BEVT-22ZCT0 11.01A11 ATA-8 SATA 2.x device
ada3: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA6, PIO 8192bytes)
ada3: Command Queueing enabled
ada3: 152627MB (312581808 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C)
How can I get information what the error actually is?
Is such operation reasonable? Is it supposed to work?
Yuri
My first guess is that permissions for /dev/ada3 are not sufficient for
your vbox user.

On the side note, this is Linux Mint, and for some reason, even without installing the guest additions, all features normally enabled by additions work without me installing them (shared folders, screen resize, non-sticky mouse). I am not sure if mint comes with additions in it, or how does this work.
