there is no "quick and dirty" easy way. I have done it several times using <https://my.vmware.com/en/web/vmware/downloads/info/slug/infrastructure_operations_management/vmware_vcenter_converter_standalone/6_2_0>. You can then import the image in VBox. There seems to exist a way without Vmware, but that doesn't sound easier <https://www.linux.org/threads/physical-to-virtual-p2v-using-virtualbox.10928/>. And I haven't tried this one. hth Christoph -- Bitte keine Mails von USA-Providern wie AOL, me.com (Apple), gmail (Google), hotmail/outlook.com (Microsoft) oder yahoo.
