vbox4_ubuntu_16_04_64.run recipe

[Christian Helmuth]

Hey Chris,

additionally to Alexander guide I'd like to add that Virtual Disk
Image (VDI) files carry a UUID for identification that is also
specified in the .vbox file. So please make sure that the UUIDs of the
VDIs match those in the configuration files. For
vm_ubuntu_16_04_64.vbox

  <HardDisks>
    <HardDisk uuid="{2a248ff9-7ac9-4862-98f9-14e31968f23d}" location="/ubuntu_16_04_64.vdi" format="VDI" type="Immutable">
      <HardDisk uuid="{78a3a6a1-ade6-41bf-8b29-ec7cf16de4bb}" location="/ram/overlay_ubuntu_16_04_64.vdi" format="VDI" autoReset="true"/>
    </HardDisk>
  </HardDisks>

You may retrieve the UUID of an VDI via

  vboxmanage showhdinfo <vdi file> | grep ^UUID

on any Linux machine.
