I have yesterday installed BT 5 r2 32bit in Virtual Box on my net-book. As a noob I am at a loss to know how to upload/transfer programs or files into BT. I tried to access them from my computer's desktop but just got a msg saying file/directory does not exist. So I guess there's a method to import/export files, programs etc into BT5?
I had seen somewhere on You Tube that you could not however do that if running BT inside a VM.
Can somebody please help? Thanks. Doc Strange

in "host-machine" my is win7
A) create a folder to be allocated to virtual machines ( my is called "virtual" and is locate on windows-desktop)
B) open virtualbox > select my bt5-r3>settings>shared-folder> add..."virtual"..locate in my win-desktop && ACTIVATE only auto-mount && OK
C)fireup my bt5-r3 (my-virtualbox is 4.2.6)
D)open terminal & type apt-get update
E)type in terminal
prepare-kernel-sources (press-enter)
cd /usr/src/linux (press-enter)
cp -rf include/generated/* include/linux/ (press-enter)
F)in the frame of "virtualbox" >> devices> install guest additions.....when the ""guest-addintions-disk"" is mounted "run" the script VBoxLinuxAdditions.run in terminal with : sh VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
G)when fishished with no error (in my case) reboot a VM ...&& after restarting my "shared-folder called virtual" is locate in /media/sf_virtual
bye

sorry for low-quality video

My kind friend when I entered into the terminal of BT5 the following:
prepare-kernel-sources (press-enter)
there was a number of error/failing messages appeared before the root@bt prompt reappeared
I then typed in and entered:
cd /usr/src/linux (press-enter)
that resulted in a blue colored message saying /usr/src/linux#
When I entered cp -rf include/generated/* include/linux/
that also that resulted in a blue colored message saying /usr/src/linux#
There is something I am not following correctly? Or some technical issue? Regards, Doc Strange
