The {{modifyvm}} subcommand gives no output if it succeeds, if you want to see the result, issue the {{showvminfo}} command again.
Now before we can boot the thing for the first time, we need a bootable ISO image, and a harddisk that can be used for installation
I downloaded an Ubuntu 11.10 ISO in {{/home/metskem/iso/ubuntu-11.10-server-i386.iso}}.
First we have to define 2 controllers :
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 ) VBoxManage storagectl Ubuntu2 --name='IDE Controller' --add=ide --controller=PIIX4 --bootable=on %% \\
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 ) VBoxManage storagectl Ubuntu2 --name='SATA Controller' --add=sata --controller=IntelAhci --bootable=on
%%
The result with {{showvminfo}} :
%%small
{{{
metskem@gneisenau ~ $ VBoxManage showvminfo Ubuntu2|grep Storage
Storage Controller Name (0): IDE Controller
Storage Controller Type (0): PIIX4
Storage Controller Instance Number (0): 0
Storage Controller Max Port Count (0): 2
Storage Controller Port Count (0): 2
Storage Controller Bootable (0): on
Storage Controller Name (1): SATA Controller
Storage Controller Type (1): IntelAhci
Storage Controller Instance Number (1): 0
Storage Controller Max Port Count (1): 30
Storage Controller Port Count (1): 30
Storage Controller Bootable (1): on
}}}
%%
Now let us attach the ISO image as a DVD drive with the {{storageattach}} subcommand:\\
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 ) VBoxManage storageattach Ubuntu2 --storagectl='IDE Controller' --port=1 --device=1 --type=dvddrive --medium=/home/metskem/iso/ubuntu-11.10-server-i386.iso %%
And now the hard disk, but we first have to create a hard disk, that can be done with the {{createhd}} subcommand: \\
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 ) VBoxManage createhd --filename Ubuntu2Disk --size=5000 %%
%%small
{{{
metskem@gneisenau ~ $ VBoxManage createhd --filename Ubuntu2Disk --size=5000
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
Disk image created. UUID: 1a46ebb4-52b7-4813-9143-180c1affaf55
}}}
%%
This gives us a 5GB disk image. Now we have to attach this disk to the VM with the {{storageattach}} subcommand:\\
%%(background-color : #d3ee03 ) %%
