1637	Linux unable to mount Shared folder if folder name is same with mount path	nnnf		"/sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: Protocol error

The error above will be shown when typing the following command:

sudo mount -t vboxsf vfolder /home/myname/vfolder/    (this is Ubuntu 8.04)

The shared folder settings:
Folder name: vfolder
Folder path: c:\vfolder

It will work, however, if a different name is given for the mount dst path, eg. /home/myname/abc"	defect	closed	other	VirtualBox 1.6.0	duplicate			other	other
