Virtual Box Shared Folder between WinXP host and Ubuntu guest

Although Virtual Box provided an option of shared folder, it is not straightforward to use this shared folder. It took me some searches on VirtualBox forum to find it how Ubuntu guest OS can access the shared Folder on WinXP host OS.

1. Add folder(s) to shared folder menu.

 

It is important to write down the folder names at this step. 

 

2. Boot guest system, open a terminal and type in the following commands

sudo mkdir /mnt/tao_xp

sudo mount.vboxsf TAO /mnt/tao_xp

The shared folder would be accessible now: read & write!
