2. Find the data space in settings of virtualbox, add the folder to be shared, and select Auto-mount and fixed allocation:

Device --> allocate Data Space --> Add Data Space

I chose drive C for the entire win7 drive, Data Space Location C: \, data space name c_drive

3. confirm the existence of/sbin/mount. vboxsf

4. Check whether the boxvfs module is loaded: lsmod | grep vboxvfs. If it is not loaded, run the modprobe vboxvfs command to load it.

5. Create a mount point:

[Root @ zuantianyang-lnx ~] # Cd/
[Root @ zuantianyang-lnx/] # mkdir win7_c_drive

[Root @ zuantianyang-lnx/] # Mount-T vboxsf c_drive win7_c_drive

C_drive is the data space name, corresponding to the shared Windows folder.

6. To enable the Windows folder to be accessed after the machine is restarted, mount the folder automatically after centos is restarted. You need to modify/etc/fstab and add

C_drive/win7_c_drive vboxsf defaults 0 0 save, mount the Windows shared directory c_drive to cenos/win7_c_drive

[Root @ zuantianyang-lnx ~] # Cd/etc/
[Root @ zuantianyang-lnx etc] # vi fstab

/Dev/volgroup00/logvol00/ext3 defaults 1 1
Label =/boot ext3 defaults 1 2

/Dev/volgroup00/logvol01 swap defaults 0 0

# Automatically mount windows7 c_drive to/win7_c_drive during startup, byrneyang.

C_drive/win7_c_drive vboxsf defaults 0 0

7. unmount
