Virtualbox set up virtual and physical machines shared folders

Outline

When we installed a virtual machine on the local machine, install the linux system especially friends, often need to transfer files from the local machine to a virtual machine, is definitely the way to achieve a variety of multi-style, to himself, not previously set up shared folders, sftp way has been passed with the use of ssh channel, due to the local network, and must also smoothly. In this way the only need is to download a good sftp transfer tool, but some friends would think, is the establishment of a virtual machine on a physical machine, why not transfer directly from the physical machine into it? Right, vmware virtualbox virtual machine and has a shared folder function, a local folder directly mount to the virtual machine, the following describes how to implement this procedure.

Since I used here is virtualbox, so use virtualbox to demonstrate, other virtual principle is the same, not introduced here.

step 1

virtuabox build a shared folder

First select the need to set up a virtual machine shared folder, select Settings = "shared folder, right click on the blue + icon new shared folder.

Choose a local machine folder as a shared folder, if no special permission requirements, check the fixed allocation entries.

Step 2

Add Drive

Memory select = "= the IDE controller" = add the CD-ROM "VBoxGuestAdditions.iso, VBoxGuestAdditions.iso drive the mirror installation directory virtualBox

Step 3

Mount system

After starting the system, execute the following command

[root@localhost ~]# mount -t auto /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/sr0 写保护，将以只读方式挂载
[root@localhost ~]# cd /mnt/cdrom/
[root@localhost cdrom]# ls
32Bit  AUTORUN.INF  cert  runasroot.sh  VBoxLinuxAdditions.run    VBoxWindowsAdditions-amd64.exe  VBoxWindowsAdditions-x86.exe
64Bit  autorun.sh   OS2   TRANS.TBL     VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg  VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe
[root@localhost cdrom]# ls
32Bit  AUTORUN.INF  cert  runasroot.sh  VBoxLinuxAdditions.run    VBoxWindowsAdditions-amd64.exe  VBoxWindowsAdditions-x86.exe
64Bit  autorun.sh   OS2   TRANS.TBL     VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg  VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe
[root@localhost cdrom]# ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

## 这里我的centos 虚拟机缺少bzip2依赖，提示缺少什么就安装什么，安装依赖后继续执行 VBoxLinuxAdditions.run


已安装:
  bzip2.x86_64 0:1.0.6-13.el7                                                                                                                                                          

完毕！
