How to do it on minimal version? Will the popu came out?
thank you🫡
Really great video, I'm confused about the error:
"Could not insert the C:Program FilesOracleVirtualBox/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso disk image file into the virtual machine local_users_default, as the machine has no optical drives. Please add a drive using the storage page of the virtual machine settings window."
There is a weird forward slash that seems to be out of place, but also, there is definitely a disk image, otherwise how would the VM have been created in the first place? I usually sign in using vagrant and have saved a lot of stuff to the virtual disk. Confused where to start with this error.
Any tips? Thanks again 🙂

Many Many thanks 👍. Its working perfectly. Clipboard and shared folders are working bidirectional Thanks to you.
Your speed is like F-16 i rewind So many time than set speed at .75 for some important point even reduce more. 😂
the shared folders does not work. I see the folders being created in /media/ and when I try to access them theyre empty.
can I use root user itself to install and use above command (except sudo)
To the point!!!!❤❤
sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo: dnf: command not found
