I also noticed a lot of issues when trying to add a *.vdi instead
of creating a new HDD at creation. Error says the *.vdi is not
registered in the VirtualBox.xml and refuses to use it. Since we
can't add in the VMM any longer this is a show stopper for using
existing guest VDI.<br>
<br>
Another issue is I have been able to create the guest folder and
place the *.VDI file in it and then create the guest and point
that to the existing *.VDI file. No other files in the folder
just the VDI. Now it says that the folder can not be used because
it already exists. It used to be as long as no .vbox file was not
there it would allow you to create the guest. <br>

<pre wrap="">Perry,
thanks for the report and sorry for the delayed response. But it seems
that current HEAD has some more problems which we are investigating
(e.g. we see SEGFAULTs in certain circumstances).
But I've uploaded an extension pack which should work with current
HEAD to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.51-77491.vbox-extpack">http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.51-77491.vbox-extpack</a>
Kind regards,
Frank

<pre wrap="">Thank you for backing out r77457 (due to VDI file content corruption)
This seems to have fixed the corruption of currently installed guests.
Would it be possible to get a current Extension Pack?
Seems current changes require it to be updated.

If you have upgraded VirtualBox recently, please make sure you have

At this point you say ok and the VDI file becomes corrupt and
Inaccessible.
There is no recovery from this that I can find as even trying to
reattach it comes back with the Parent file does not exist in
VirtualBox.xml
Reverting back to r40867 does not fix the corrupt files but does work
on ones you have not tried to start.
