Folder sharing to Borealis VM (Steam)

Support & help
1

I’m trying to share a folder on a partition outside of FydeOS partition but can’t do it.

crosh> vmc share borealis "/media/removable/D/SteamLibrary"
Error: operation `vm_share_path` failed: failed to share path with vm: Path must be relative and cannot reference parent components nor end with "."
ERROR - ERROR: command failed

I can share any folders in “My files” (the FydeOS partition) just fine. Can someone help?

It should be related to the disk format I guess. Your D drive is definitely not formatted as ext2 or ext4, so it cannot be read by the borealis vm.

Oh thanks, it’s formatted as NTFS. But how it is possible that the drive can be shared to the linux subsystem?
