4628,Split2G option is not supported and should give an error message => fixed in 3.0.12,Joe,,"I'm assuming that the --variant Split2G option is not supported - see e.g. [http://www.virtualbox.de/ticket/3802]

The '''defect''' is that it's accepted and createhd or clonehd operations appear to succeed. But then the resulting disk can't be used. E.g.:

{{{
C:\Program Files\Sun\xVM VirtualBox>VBoxManage clonehd T:\Systems\VirtualBox\VDI
\UbunTrek.vdi T:\Systems\VirtualBox\VDI\UbunTrek2G.vmdk --format VMDK --variant
Split2G --remember

A similar error happens with createhd and clonehd --existing.
