I have installed virtualbox in Debian 9. Then, I installed FreeDOS in the virtual box folling the tutorial in http://wiki.freedos.org/wiki/index.php/VirtualBox_-_Chapter_6. I have installed the libguestfs-tools and fuse.



Now, when I run
guestmount -a freeDOS.vhd -m /dev/sda1 /data/freeDOS



I get this
guestmount: access: freeDOS.vhd: No such file or directory



the command
virt-filesystems --long --filesystems -a /data/freeDOS/freeDOS.vhd



gives this
Name Type VFS Label Size Parent
/dev/sda1 filesystem vfat FREEDOS2016 104752640 -



Any help on how to mount the freeDOS vhd to share it with Debian?



Many thanks
