Hi,
Is it possible to access the virtual disk of a VM from the host (linux in my case)
without having it's "owner" booted?
George...
You can convert a VDI image to raw format, and then just mount that
image as if it were a disk, if there are multiple partitions then you
need to do some fdisk tasks to find the offset to mount at.
e.g.
VBoxManage clonehd your-virtualbox-disk.vdi disk.img --format RAW
fdisk -l -u=sectors disk.img
offset = 512 * Start of partition
mount -o loop,offset=xxxx disk.img /mnt/mountpoint
