I'm tring to run two instances of the same VM.  To achieve this, I followed
some steps I found on Internet:


  - I created a VM (Windows XP)
  - I created a hard disk and installed  a Windows XP on it.
  - I unregistered the virtual disk using:

VBoxManage unregisterimage disk /media/hda3/VirtualBox/Windows\ XP.vdi

  - then I re-registered it with:

VBoxManage registerimage disk /media/hda3/VirtualBox/Windows\ XP.vdi -type
immutable


  - Then I created another VM (Windows XP too)
  - And Finally, I set "/media/hda3/VirtualBox/Windows\ XP.vdi" as
  Primary Master for both VM's (usging the GUI administrator)

But, just one of the VM runs..the other one fails with this error:

Failed to start the virtual machine Windows XP2:

"VM cannot start because the hard disk
'/home/lgallard/.VirtualBox/Machines/Windows
XP2/Snapshots/{8e94607c-263b-4c6a-9b63-16054ba32cd6}.vdi' is not accessible
(Hard disk '/media/hda3/VirtualBox/Windows XP.vdi' is being used by another
task (1 readers))."

anybody has an idea of what I missing??

Thanks in advance...
