Can I move my virtual machines from one PC to another?
#8
ok, I've checked that.
My working LL was the image to test, a lot of software has been installed/uninstalled since it was initially created, so it was wasted a lot.

1)  The initial size:

Code:
-rw-------  1 az az        9287237632 марта 31 13:09 Linux_Lite Clone.vdi

2) Then I filled the drive with zeros:

Code:
cat /dev/zero > /empty_file

In a couple of minutes no more free space left and there is a huge empty_file.
so, rm empty_file.

Code:
-rw-------  1 az az        9288286208 марта 31 13:13 Linux_Lite Clone.vdi
Seems the image size is the same.



Let's compact it:

Code:
VBoxManage modifyhd Linux_Lite Clone.vdi --compact


Now the things are better:

Code:
-rw-------  1 az az        4762632192 марта 31 13:15 Linux_Lite Clone.vdi
