Switching from Dual Boot to Virtual Box [closed]

问题:

I am dual booting on my Lenovo t420 windows and Ubuntu. I am using both Os and find it annoying to switch back and forth...I was wondering if I could have Ubuntu on my Virtual Box and copy my information from the Dual Boot to the windows partition. I have lots of stuff on my Linux, mainly because of eclipse and android stuff.

look at this link: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9323

it is possible that this may not work because when an OS is installed, it loads only the files to make it run on your specific machine. the simulated hardware in virtualbox might be too different that what it uses now.(I know this because I tried this with win xp)

If you're running Windows 7, you can use 'Windows Virtual PC', which is built in to Windows 7, to run a Linux OS as virtual machine. See http://answers.oreilly.com/topic/366-how-to-run-linux-under-windows-7s-windows-virtual-pc/ for more info.

I'm T420 with both Ubuntu(12.04 64bit) and Win7 too. Normally I can see Win7 partition be mount to Ubuntu and I can copy data from Ubuntu to Win7.
