Convert VMware VMDK tot Virtualbox VDI images

Convert VMware VMDK tot Virtualbox VDI images

To use the second method we�ll need an addition command-line tool called qemu.

sudo aptitude install qemu

You�ll new be able to convert a .vmdk (VMware image) to a .bin format, which can then be converted to a Virtualbox native .vdi format.

qemu-img convert original.vmdk converted.bin

You�ll then need to use the VBoxManage utility that comes with Virtualbox to convert the .bin to a native .vdi format:

VBoxManage convertdd converted.bin converted.vdi

You can now create your new Virtualbox machine profile, using this new .vdi file as your disk image. download
