Type this command to view a list of OS templates recognised by VirtualBox:
VBoxManage list ostypes |
Here is an example output:
ID: Windows7 Description: Windows 7 (32-bit) Family ID: Windows Family Desc: Microsoft Windows 64 bit: false ID: Windows7_64 Description: Windows 7 (64-bit) Family ID: Windows Family Desc: Microsoft Windows 64 bit: true ID: Windows8 Description: Windows 8 (32-bit) Family ID: Windows Family Desc: Microsoft Windows 64 bit: false ID: Windows8_64 Description: Windows 8 (64-bit) Family ID: Windows Family Desc: Microsoft Windows 64 bit: true ID: Windows81 Description: Windows 8.1 (32-bit) Family ID: Windows Family Desc: Microsoft Windows 64 bit: false |
The ID field is what you’ll need to use, i.e:
VBoxManage createvm --name Win7-64bit-VM1 --ostype Windows7_64 --register |
