Really hate VirtualBox with a passion as I can't get it to work.
2 issues:
1. You cannot import the .ova file. You get a error. Your .ovf config won't allow you to import it (even setting the correct parameters it doesn't work). To get pass this I had to pull the .vdmk from the .ova and build a machine AROUND it (this is one reason why I hate VirtualBox. The way they designed this is retarded).
2. Getting the Network Adapter to actually function in VirtualBox is a pain in the butt. Even doing adapter 1: NAT and adapter 2: Host-Only, then setting up the IP in the guest OS, it refuses to establish a connection. Bridging the adapters also does not work.
So I tossed VB in the trash bin for the um-teenth Ducking time and decided to use VMware.
It works. It boots up. There's a connection. But there's one problem:
Using this .vdmk in VMware forces the system volume to READ-ONLY. You cannot edit, modify, upload ANYTHING in the system. /ragequit
Really annoying that i've tried messing with this for nearly 6 hours and nothing works.
