Listmates,
I have my Toshiba 205d laptop that came with Vista Home Premium (I have
my recovery disk). What I want to do is delete the vista partition, expand my
existing /home partition with gparted, then reinstall vista in virtualbox. The
problem I am running into is that vista won't install as a guest on my laptop
in virtualbox. I guess the recovery disk sees the vbox environment as different
from the normal hardware and has some check that prevents the install. I own
it, it's licensed for this laptop, I just want to install it to virtualbox
instead of standalone to prevent wasting all the additional space in the vista
partition that never gets used.
What's the trick?
