[Ilugc] Creating a Virutalbox compatible VM from raw files
Hello everyone, First off, please pardon me if this is *not* the right place to ask such question but I am not sure with which words I can even google on this issue :-( I want to create a VHD / VDI / VMDK image from raw file system. Is it possible? That means, I have the total file system as tarball, now I want to create some VirtualBox compatible image from that raw file system. Is it even possible?
