There is another way to have more disk space. Now attach the clone file (vdi) to the Oracle VBox. The directory locations may be very different on your system.

To increase the space to 24 GB I replaced newsize in MB with (24 * 1024))īut as it is a fixed disk instead of dynamic this operation is not allowed. VBoxManage modifyhd “C:\Users\\VirtualBox VMs\ubuntu\ubuntu.vmdk ” -resize To find out where the VM with ubuntu image is do the following:Ĭhange directory to F:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox and then run the following from Windows command prompt. On the host machine the Virtual Box System Files are at: Recently to install MNE (to preprocess EEG data) and all necessary Python components I needed to increase the diskspace allocated to the Ubuntu guest. On the same VirtualBox (I recently upgraded it too due to the fact that the VirtualBox stopped working after recent auto upgrade of Windows 10) I installed Ubuntu OS as well (for my other projects). This is because Docker cannot run directly on Windows (as per my research several months ago). This is to keep track of the steps which I followed to increase disk size so that next time I can just use this document and do something similar quickly.Ĭouple of months ago to explore Docker on Windows I had to install Oracle Virtual Box first and then had a Docker image installed on top of it.
