| - | What we experimented with the Oracle RDP Web Control (PhpVirtualBox Console) is that it was NOT POSSIBLE TO SEND the "Ctrl" CHARACTER, nor "esc", through the console, making it impossible to edit files this way. Thus we need another way to access the /etc/network/interfaces file. We'll try to **mount the vdi** on our OMV host as [[http://www.aossama.com/mount-virtualbox-vdi-image-debian/|described here]]. | + | What we experimented with the Oracle RDP Web Control (PhpVirtualBox Console) is that it was NOT POSSIBLE TO SEND the "Ctrl" CHARACTER, nor "esc", through the console, making it impossible to edit files this way.

| - | With the VM **stopped**: | + | |
| - | <code> | + | |
| - | > apt-get install qemu-utils kpartx | + | |

| - | Now we can access files on the vdi: | + | |
| - | <code> | + | |
