I'm trying out AndroVM and cant figure out how to access a shraed folder with VirtualBox. The instructions say it needs to be called mysdcard, which I did. But I can't find it in the android.



What do I need to do?

  • Could you please list the steps done for creating the shared folder?

Quoting from the AndroVM Documentation:




Beginning with the 20130222 release, VirtualBox shared folders are supported ; all the “auto-mount” shared folders configured for the VM will be mounted under the “/mnt/shared” directory.




This is working for me.
