Hello Mates,

i've tried to add a shared Folder into VirtualBox. The adding was good, but if i type mount -t vboxsf torrents /mnt i'm getting: linux-lp52:/home/sascha # mount -t vboxsf /multimedia/torrents /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /multimedia/torrents, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) Manchmal liefert das Syslog wertvolle Informationen – versuchen Sie dmesg | tail oder so

Has anyone an Idea, how to fix it?

not sure whether this is the correct list, but have you tried running the command it says?

dmesg | tail

In my case, it was a module conflict because I have both virtualbox and virtualbox guest additions installed. Also, assuming you share a folder on the host with folder path "/multimedia/torrents" and give it the name "torrents" (on virtualbox shared folder settings), I think the correct syntax should be Now i've done the following Steps: 1.) Started the VM 2.) Added under Devices/Shared Folder a shared Folder. Loc /multimedia/torrent Name torrent. 3.) Restart the VM

4.) Load openSUSE 11.3 with GNOME 5.) Searched under /mnt and /home and under "Filemanager/Network". But found nothing. Under Network just a Windows Network is visible. 6.) mount -t vboxsf torrent /mnt (as written in http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#sharedfolders) 7.) got issue: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /multimedia/torrents, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) Manchmal liefert das Syslog wertvolle Informationen – versuchen Sie dmesg | tail oder so 8.) dmesg | tail says: intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 51460 usecs (9722 samples) intel8x0: measured clock 188923 rejected intel8x0: clocking to 48000 BIOS EDD facility v0.16 2004-Jun-25, 5 devices found vboxsf: Successfully loaded version 3.2.6_OSE (interface 0x00010004) e1000: eth0 NIC Link is up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: RX type=1503 audit(1279455646.105:12): operation="change_hat" info="unconfined" error=1 pid=9696 type=1503 audit(1279455646.105:13): operation="change_hat" info="unconfined" error=1 pid=9696 eth0: no IPv6 routers present sf_read_super_aux err=-22 So i started the Shell and searched inside /sbin for mount.vboxsf. But nothing found. Maybe the mount.vboxsf File is packaged in an other Package? -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns open-slx GmbH openSUSE Community & Support Agent openSUSE Marketing Team Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com Web: http://www.open-slx.de (openSUSE Box Support German) Web: http://www.open-slx.com (openSUSE Box Support English)
