Don't know if the drive will be bootable :)

Is there a way to transfer the bootable filesystem

that one can boot directly that drive?
I mean if the VDI is a linux bootable image under
vbox, is it possible to extract the linux image
itself and put it on a drive and boot linux from
that drive directly?
In the worst case (and it might not even be the worst case) you could
simply mount both the vdi image and the raw disk partition inside a
running vbox guest (i.e. linux) and simply dd from the vdi mounted image
to the partition mounted one.
No fuss, no muss.
