#6420 duplicate Allow for read-only floppy images Alkis Georgopoulos
Description

On Virtualbox 3.1.4-57640_Ubuntu_karmic, while trying to mount a read-only floppy image, I'm getting the following error:

Failed to start the virtual machine ltsp4.

Failed to open image '/usr/share/gpxe/gpxe.dsk' for writing due to wrong permissions (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).

It would be nice if we were allowed to mount read-only floppy images, and they were considered as read-only floppy disks (like when we uncover the hole in the floppy).

#2479 duplicate Allow guest OS to create sym link within same folder share if host OS supports it. Kris Rousey
Description

I use OS X and have an Ubuntu guest running. I would like to edit my code on OS X and just use the the guest OS to compile it through a shared folder.

This project uses a proprietary Linux tool chain to build, so I need the guest OS. The build system makes extensive use of symbolic links, but the shared folder mounted file system doesn't allow me to create them. Both both OS's understand symbolic links.

Can this be supported in an enhancement? Thanks.

#11011 worksforme Allow guest serial port to redirect to a pseudo terminal on UNIX hosts ziyan
Description

Currently you can redirect a guest's serial port only to a domain socket or a hardware port (TTY). Connecting to a domain socket requires additional tools like "socat" to transform the vbox domain socket to either a PTY or TCP port.

It would be nice to be able to redirect a guest's serial port *directly* to a pseudo terminal slave device on UNIX hosts. Basically I would like to do something like:

VBoxManage--uartmode1 /dev/ttyp1
screen /dev/ptyp1 && VBoxManage startvm linux

On v 4.1. this fails with Failed to open host device /dev/ttyp1 VERR_RESOURCE_BUSY

I hope adding this is not too difficult since you already support TTYs. Thanks.
