  • windows guest OS is unable to boot telling me stop 7b (inaccessible boot device)
  • Leave the setting on PIIX3 and Windows will be fine

  • just copy your disk and use an undocumented command to assign a new UUID to your new disk:

      
    cp Master.vdi Clone.vdi VBoxManage internalcommands setvdiuuid Clone.vdi

  • 1) Shut down the virtual machine you would like to copy 
    2) In File > Virtualdiskmanager, select the virtual machine disk image you would like to copy, and press the Release button 
    3) In a terminal window, issue following command (see virtualbox user manual): 
    vboxmanage clonevdi /directory/image1.vdi /directory/image2.vdi 
    4) In File > Virtualdiskmanager, add the new disk image you've created in step 3. 
    5) In the main virtualbox window, press the New button to create a new virtual machine, and link it to the new disk image you've created.
