WIN7/8 under VirtualBox virtual Ubuntu shared folder settings

Lab Environment:

• Host: win8.1
• Virtual machine Software: VirtualBox4.3
• Virtual Host: centos6.5 final

Pro-Test available! 1. Install the Enhanced Feature Pack (Vboxguestadditions)

　　Open the virtual machine, run CentOS, select "Device-and-install enhancements" in the menu bar, and follow the prompts to install successfully (you can also achieve true fullscreen after success).

2. Setting up Shared Folders Select "Device->shared Folders Settings (shared folder Settings)" In the menu bar, find the icon to add the shared folder (a folder icon with the plus sign) in the Pop-up dialog box, click the Pop-up dialog and select the appropriate folder path, such as D:\ Temp, the following 3 items can be selected as needed (Personal select "Auto Mount", "fixed assignment") 3. Mount the shared folder at the command line terminal, enter:

sudo mkdir/mnt/-t vboxsf  temp/mnt/share where "Temp" is the name of the shared folder that was previously created.

OK, now Ubuntu and host can transfer files. the "/mnt/share" folder under Ubuntu and the "D:/temp" folder under Windows are somewhat equivalent to a folder (add, modify, delete will occur synchronously)

4. To uninstall, use the following command:

sudo umount-f/mnt/share
