7251,createrawvmdk seems broken in 3.2.6 => fixed in SVN,dubuscyr,,"Hi all, 

I'm reporting this because I think this is a bug. At least, I can reproduce it.

I'm trying to use a USB Key (physical) as a virtual disk for a VM. For this, I looked at the documentation, and I found something at 9.7.1.1 :

VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename /path/to/file.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sda

I apply this to my case, the command runs well. But when I start my VM with this vmdk disk, I got exactly the same error as Beren in this topic :

http://forum.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&p=147197

The screenshot is available here : http://www.joelandmeg.com/webpics/win7shot.png

I tried to downgrade Vbox to the 3.0.8 version, and everything is working well.

That's why I think that the createrawvmdk command is broken in the last version.

I'm running MacOs X SL 10.6.4
