Migrating a VirtualBox .vdi Image to CoLinux


[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Hi all,

I love VirtualBox as a virtualization platform for running Linux guests on my Windows XP host. However, I'm interested in trying out CoLinux to see how well it plays as a primary hobbyist dev platform. Is there an easy (or relatively painless) way to migrate a VirtualBox .vdi hard drive image so that it works in CoLinux?

My guest OS is Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop (Gutsy Gibbon).

Thanks,
--Metal Substance

Just recently been messing about with coLinux myself, but don't know the answer. Try Googling, or the coLinux wiki:
