saad,

i dont have the information directly on-hand, but in your virtual box configuration (independent of freesurfer) there should be an option to map a USB drive into the linux virtual machine. others have done this successfully. you'd have to google the help docs for your virtual box to learn about this (or maybe someone on this list will respond).

Hi,

I have recently installed freesurfer 5.0.0 on top of a Xubuntu Linux distribution on an virtualBox/WIN XP computer. I can run freesurfer without a problem.

My problem is with accessing Host drives from linux system. How am I going to get the image data to my linux virtual system if I cannot access host USB drives from my guest linux system? I looked on your archives and found nothing on "shared drives".

Your help is appreciated.
