    Virtual Box Guest Additions

    Selected Guest additions from the menu and nothing happened. To check if it was a silent action I attempted to use the folder mount feature which becomes active with guest additions and couldn't due to feature not present.

    Virtual Box Guest Additions

    Virtual box is reinstalled with guest additions. But, it isn't or doesn't seem to be active. On Linux there is a file to run that installs the additions and recomplies the kernel. The linux and solaris files are on the cd image. How do I make the Guest Additions active?

    Resizing /usr

    I goofed. I added the new partition ad0s2d to fstab. It is detecting an error. No Superblock found. How can I recover? The file system comes up read only and I can't invoke any editors.
