Ticket Resolution Summary Owner Reporter
#5969 wontfix mounting shared folder on Linux guest error Ben Cotton
Description

VirtualBox 3.1.2 Guest Additions adds /sbin/mount.vboxsf instead of /sbin/mount.vboxfs. Although this is what the documentation suggests, it is different from Solaris and typical naming standards. It should be mount.vboxfs for better usability.

#12889 duplicate mount.vsbox symlink is broken in 4.3.10 -> duplicate of #12879. VastOne
Description

Debian SID (VSIDO) 4.3.10 VirtualBox

The symlink for mount.vsbox symlink is broken (missing) in 4.3.10 Guest Additions update

/sbin/mount.vsbox is/was a symlink to usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/mount.vsbox

In order to get mount.vsbox and my mounts working again I had to manually setup a symlink of /sbin/mount.vsbox to /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions/mount.vsbox

Once done, I could mount again

#17221 fixed mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such device TheITGuy
Description

Trying to mount a shared folder on Centos & RHEL guests:

# mount -t vboxsf sharedfolder /hostfiles/ /sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such device

but works like a dream on Solaris & Oracle Linux virtual boxes.

Please note the the virtual guest addition is installed on all boxes and on Centos/RHEL by running: VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

This is evident by the fact that the mount command recognizes the vboxsf file system type. Prior to installation I tested the command and the error was different. Then the error was about FS type being invalid.

Host is a Windows 7 Machine and Virtual box is 5.1.16.

Centos is:

# uname -a Linux centos 3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Aug 22 21:09:27 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# cat /etc/system-release CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)
