Hey everyone!
Last week's problem: Turns out, Virtualbox cannot mount the second drive. Nor the primary one. I tried adding the drives to the IDE controller, and to the SATA one (in Virtualbox), but nothing.
I switched _back_ to Vmware. And voila, it works! Okay, mounting. I still had to fix a lot more issues before it could boot.
But. It boots, works now. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zqyaf90c7puawa3/GSOC_ALPHA.mp4
Rest assured, there is plenty of work left. So what works: - Auto detect - Auto mount - Persistent changes - Cool dialog interface
Current issues/TODO: - Dialog may misbehave on random boots - Various VM issues ( I want to fix Virtualbox behaviour) - Have to test system on a real pendrive, on a real machine (I did work with a real machine, so it will work, but have to confirm). - Implement NFS and the other "let's do this" things
Let me know if I missed anything.
Good luck for everyone! Regards, Peter

I'm not sure it's possible to *boot* any real usb device with virtualbox. Have to use an image

Hello!
I wanted to mount a virtual drive. /dev/sda3, it was a simple ext2 partition. Then I tried adding a second drive. No use. Then I added a second drive on the IDE controller, removed it from SATA. Nope.
(The error message was: "device is busy or mounted." But I checked mounts, etc. And after I loaded the virtual disk in Vmware, it mounted up the drive perfect. I'm pretty sure I missed out a combination, like installing the machine on ATA controller by default. Will test / work on this when the system works fine.)
