Description
I am trying to get VirtualBox to boot up my Bootcamp Partition. Does anyone know why I'm getting the error "VBoxManage: error: Cannot read the partition information from '/dev/disk0'"?
What I typed into terminal {{{WinXPmbp manila$ chmod 777 /dev/disk0 /dev/disk0s4 WinXPmbp manila$ sudo VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -rawdisk /dev/disk0 -filename "/Users/home/VirtualBox/WinXPMBP/bootcamp.vmdk" -partitions 4 Password: VBoxManage: error: Cannot read the partition information from '/dev/disk0' VBoxManage: error: The raw disk vmdk file was not created}}}
