Hi,

Thank you for your replies.

I refer to Osgeo-Live 8 open source version and particularly to the instructions here: http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/virtualization_quickstart.html

I have followed all the steps till "In the VirtualBox window, open the Devices menu and click Install Guest Additions. This will mount the Guest Additions as a CD drive in your OSGeo Live VM." because in my case it doesn't mount the guest addition stuff.

Hi Madi
I use this option to mount UBS drives in virtualbox VMs all the time. After installing the guest additions, it seems to work fine.
I just now double checked in a OSGeo Live 8.0 VM. The "Guest Additions CD" was mounted as expected (Windows host) and after installing, a USB disk is recognized with no trouble.

Did you mention that your host machine is Fedora? I noticed this blog:
