You rigth! My VirtualBox runs on Linux! But the idea is to select your real cd-rom drive. Then, when you run your VM you'll be able to mount/umount your cd-rom drive form the VBox menu. If you can't see the cd-rom on Ubuntu automatically after you've mounted it from the VBox menu, try this from a shell on Ubuntu: mount /media/cdrom ls- l /media/cdrom If you can't still see it, umount the drive from the VBox menu, and remount it. Some times is a little tricky!! P.S. Do all this with a cd-rom in the drive :) > > > For more information, consult the manual available at > > http://virtualbox.org/download/UserManual.pdf > > Thanks, I'll have a look. > > Samuel > > _______________________________________________ > vbox-users mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users > -- Saludos, Luis Gallardo _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
