@linux4noobs@lemmy.world @linux4noobs@programming.dev @casualconversation can someone please suggest me a way out ??Basically, l'm installing virtual box on a windows 10 laptop. Here, l'm going to try out MX Linux fluxbox and tinker with linux in a sandboxed environment, so that my experiments don't harm the main system. In the screenshot, you can see where l got stuck. In the storage part, it says that the controller ide optical drive is empty. The controller sata MX fluxbox.vdi is inaccessible.

Out of what? What are you trying to achieve?

    Hmm. I assume the "Inaccessible" is what you're trying to fix? Is the vdi file where it's supposed to be (on your host system) -- like, it didn't get deleted or quarantined by anti-virus or fucked around with by OneDrive or something like that, right?

    I don't use VirtualBox or Win10, so my ability to help here is limited, but sanity checking that the file is OK is where I'd start.
