(don't know what the -rative switch does but i tried without it...)
the disk has only one partition - it is neither mounted nor does it
contain any parts of the system. permissions of /dev/hdc* - for the time
being - are set to 666.
:~ $ fdisk -l /dev/hdc
Disk /dev/hdc: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdc1 * 1 19457 156288321 7 HPFS/NTFS
:~ $ ls -la /dev/hdc*
brw-rw-rw- 1 root root 22, 0 2007-10-05 23:56 /dev/hdc
brw-rw-rw- 1 root root 22, 1 2007-10-05 23:56 /dev/hdc1
:~ $ VBoxManage -v
1.5.0r24069
on a debian etch/lenny system with (debian) kernel 2.6.18-5-686
any ideas?
regards,
egon
