Hi John,

Oopsie ... that was stale data.  I should have been more thorough in
my research.  This time I tested it ... :) ... sorry about that!

As you probably know, shutdown the VM first (no snapshots either),
then use your O/S tools to copy the bits.  After, generate a new
UUID.  Below, I've created a new `VDI' from an existing `VDI'

At times, I've been known to make `gold versions' of a `VDI' and use
the command below to create new Instances:

    pablo@oreo:/usr2/tmp
    $ vboxmanage internalcommands sethduuid monkey.vdi
    UUID changed to: 21cdfd83-a9c0-44c7-ae93-565eb704198e

Cheers,
