Hi,

Since upgrading to the latest version (3.2.6 OSE r63112) on Debian sid
host, the only machine I had (a Windows XP 2002 guest) reported as
"inaccessible" in the main VirtualBox window.  I got it to work again by
creating a new machine and pointing it to the same hard disk.  My first
question is: can I now simply delete
~/.VirtualBox/Machines/oldmachinename ?

However, I used to have a USB hard drive that is mounted on /media/LARGE
in my Debian host:

,-----[ ls -alh /media/LARGE ]
| total 28K
| drwxr-xr-x  4 root   root   4.0K Jan 27  2009 .
| drwxr-xr-x  6 root   root   4.0K Jul 22 09:46 ..
| drwx------  2 root   root    16K Jan 27  2009 lost+found
| drwxr-xr-x 12 sluque sluque 4.0K May 14  2009 sluque
`-----

Previously, I had this as a shared folder in the guest machine, and also
mapped as a network drive in the Windows XP guest.  However, now I can't
map it anymore.  This is what happens in the Windows XP guest, of course
after setting up the shared folder in VirtualBox (naming it "LARGE"):

1. Left click on "Start -> (right click) My Computer -> Map NetWork Drive"
   The Y: drive letter is listed, and clicking on "Browse", I can see
   and navigate the folders in this drive under "VirtualBox Shared
   Folders".
2. Selecting the folder (\\VBOXSVR\LARGE) and then "Finish" I get a
   window with the message: "Attempting to connect to \\VVBOXSRV\LARGE"
   and then another with: "The network path \\VBOXSRV\LARGE could not be
   found"

I made sure Guest Additions is installed.  Any tips as to how to correct
this welcome.
