And we should also change the vrdeport to prevent conflicts with the other VM :
At line 362 added 49 lines
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 )VBoxManage modifyvm Ubuntu2 --vrdeport=2338 %%
Listing what's on the file system shows :

! Resizing HD
The {{modifyhd}} subcommand allows you to resize a harddisk :\\
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 )VBoxManage modifyhd f1533722-250b-4bdc-8736-964bc6cbcfd7 --compact --resize 10000 %%
