I am trying to use Whonix in Live mode in VirtualBox. When I followed the pertinent VirtualBox instructions to set the drive read-only, it said to run this command:
VBoxManage setextradata Whonix-Workstation-XFCE “VBoxInternal/Devices/lsilogicsas/0/LUN#0/AttachedDriver/Config/ReadOnly” 1
I encountered this error when trying to start the virtual machine:
Failed to construct device ‘lsilogicsas’ instance #0 (VERR_PDM_CFG_MISSING_DRIVER_NAME).
Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:
ConsoleWrap
Interface:
IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
There is another post in ‘Support’ (which I cannot link to) that details the same problem, and suggests changing the controller type to ACHI in the virtual machine settings. However this did not work.
Ubuntu 18.04
VirtualBox version: 6.1.22 r144080
Whonix version: 15.0.1.9.3
