I only have 1 VM with qcow2, the rest are raw/img fully allocated. For Linux VMs, qcow2 might be a good VDI choice. I've been using virt-manager to setup/use KVM VMs - never did it the CLI way except when I had to edit the VM XML directly, then I'd use virsh edit. KVM can use vdi files directly or you can convert them using vboxmanage or qemu-img.
Would it be possible exporting the VM on VirtualBox and importing it on KVM? Would following command line be workable to completely delete the installed VirtualBox? I'm prepared to uninstall it and download the latest package on VirtualBox. I thought the suggestion seeming reasonable. Some folk suggested installing it direct on repo because of easy maintenance on update. Before installing VirtualBox I have made some searches on Internet. Previously I always installed it from the package download on their website never having the recent problem. I have been running VirtualBox for long time. If you are going to switch, purge the Canonical version before installing the Oracle version.
Do not mix repo and oracle vbox versions - always get both the core vbox stuff from the same place as you get the guest additions and make certain the version numbers match. I have seen the menu options and I have exported VMs for use under other hypervisors like KVM.īTW, most people find that installing virtualbox directly from Oracle's repo is better. I don't know anything about importing an appliance. You cannot install them until the new virtual machine is installed, rebooted, and running. Will you be much happier if you do install those? - YES! The guest additions only go inside a running guest VM, not on the host. There is another issue you are seeing and those packages will NOT fix it.
