How to set-up a shared folder on a biolinux virtualmachine

We have been working for some time with the biolinux virtualmachine on our Windows laptops. One thing that makes life a lot easier is when we can share files between the Windows host and the linux guest system.

Below you find instructions on how to set-up a shared folder that can be used to transfer files between the host and the guest system and vice versa. The first part will be done on your windows host and the second part is inside the virtualmachine.

Setting up the host

Start your Virtualmachine

Setting up the Virtualmachine

Now you are all set. Happy sharing.
