VMDK: VERR_SHARING_VIOLATION — at Initial Version
| Reported by: | Alaric | Owned by: | |

Description
When running in an administrator command line and attempting to create virtual drives from raw disks under a windows 7 host, vboxmanage fails with this error message. I was previously able to use these commands to mount my ubuntu partition under virtualbox on a windows XP host.
