So, I've been learning/working with VirtualBox for a few months now and I'm working my way down into the guts of it's usefulness. My goal is to clone some of my fresh-install .vdi's. However, the only way to get this functionality to work is through the command line.
The problem is I can't get any commands to work; not showvminfo, list, clondhd or any others.
Error messages for any commands I've tried:
I've already perused the user manual and the Vbox forums to no avail. I know it's gotta be something simple, I just can't figure out what it is. I've also checked file permissions, sharing, etc and still got nothing.
Any suggestions?
