Shared Folder / Guest Additions / Drupal
Hi there,
I have to confess, I am totally new to linux/Unbuntu and that might be the problem.
I am running VirtualBox 2.2.2 on XP and started your Drupal 6 appliance. Everything is doing fine, and after I found out about NAT/Bridge I can access Drupal also from outside.
A big Hug here for you guys by teh way for all that work and the good install description.
But... :) I like to install additional language packages to Drupal. Unfortunately I could not find out how to get these in the right folder. I simply have no clue how access the Drupal subdir from XP or via FTP.
As said, I am new to Unbuntu and I am not able to get the USB or Disk link to work. As far I understand I have to install „Gasterweiterung installieren..“ (Now I had my outcome as German) (it means „Install Guest Additions“). I understand that I can not use the mount command until I installed these. My chicken egg prob is now that according to the VB manual I have to have GuestAdditions installed to mount shared folder with the host but I can not access the GuestAdditions.iso without a shared folder. ??
I guess I getting something totally wrong here .. but what? :)
By the way, I am only able to use ls, mkdir and cd in Unbuntu :) (and a bit nano).
And yes, I tried to simply click in the Guest menu „Install Guest Additions“.
I also tried to use Device > Mount CDRom > Mount Image and selectet the GuestAddition.iso but where is this inside Unbuntu. I can not find it in /cdrom or /media/cdrom ?
If anybody has a hint or link to that problem would be really appreciated.
Aloha
