I needed to share a folder between Ubuntu 16.04 guest and Windows host in VirtualBox.

However, the terminal shows the following output:

$ sudo mount -t vboxsf Ubuntu WinLinShare
/sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such file or directory

I have already re-installed GA three times. I have checked and both the folders exist. Any help please?

  • How did you try to set up the shared folder on both host and guest – George Udosen Sep 28 '17 at 06:49

    Is that really a share named olaf that you want to mount to a directory /Shared you had previously created on the guest?
