Quote:I forgot to ask... Is the VM Linux or Windows.
Also you maybe able to shrink the VM.??
There are tools to do it, if it's a Dynamic Disk.
Check the setup - disks and see if it's dynamic.
Thanks Dave. The guest VMs (linux distros) were set up in an
LL2.8 host. Each VM was set up with a dynamic rather than a
fixed disk. You suggest shrinking the VMs, though I don't think
I'll need to do this - do the tools for shrinking VMs come with the
Oracle Virtualbox package?
