macos - Make VirtualBox VM bootable in Boot Camp



I currently have Windows 7 installed in VirtualBox on Mac OS X 10.6 and I was wondering if there is any way to make that image bootable via Boot Camp. I already have my disk partitioned.



Answer



At first I thought this was a duplicate. In any case, I have never used VirtualBox, but the other day someone asked about doing this for VMware Fusion. I think my advice there might be useful, where you install a fresh copy of Windows 7 on the Boot Camp partition, then use the Windows Easy Transfer program to transfer your files and settings.
