Access VirtualBox Shared Folder in Ubuntu Guest

I have been doing this for quite some time now but I failed to document it. First, install the VirtualBox Guest Additions on your host. Then you create a mount point (assuming it is /media/shared).


$ sudo mkdir /media/shared

You may change the path if you want. Mount the shared folder using the command below.


$ sudo mount -t vboxsf <folder> /media/shared

Replace the <folder> above with the correct shared folder name. Enjoy.

Though relatively slower than a typical USB flash drive, the storage capacity outweighs it. [To God] Thanks for being there always.
