Are the virtualbox-guest-additions on portage for folks who are |
2 |
running VirtualBox vms on there gentoo OS? |
3 |
|
4 |
Or are they for a Vbox vm where gentoo is being installed, and the |
5 |
host is something else. |
6 |
|
7 |
I ask, because I'm installing gentoo into a vm on a windows host. |
8 |
I've done this quite a few times. |
9 |
|
10 |
And the vbox pkg that gets installed on windows always has the |
11 |
guest-additions supplied internally. |
12 |
|
13 |
That is I've installed the virtualbox-guest-additions from the vbox |
14 |
package installed on the win10 host. |
15 |
|
16 |
Or is it expected that for gentoo, one is to install the |
17 |
guest-additions thru portage (when the host is not gentoo) |
18 |
|
19 |
Jesus, that sounds complicated. |
20 |
|
21 |
All I'm trying to ask is if you are installing a vbox vm with gentoo |
22 |
os in a non-gentoo host are you expected to install the |
23 |
guest-additions thru portage. |
