Virtualization / Re: VirtualBox: Can't copy files to a shared folder under ArcaOS guest
« on: Today at 03:37:17 am »
I have opened a thread on the VirtualBox forum, and have received some advice

They say it's much better to use file sharing. To me, that means using SAMBA server to share OS/2 virtual hard disk. That way, the native browser, word processor, etc can use the OS/2 storage and my OS/2 programs can get at the resulting files.
Shared folders would be easier to use, but making them work fully seems to be difficult. Both versions of the OS/2 Additions are open source. The one Valery created is on Netlabs, and the Oracle is presumably available from Oracle.
