Problem

I've a drive with Fedora and Windows 7 on different partitions with dual boot. Now, while running Fedora, I'd like to suck up the Windows partition and create an image I can run in VirtualBox - how can I do this ?

Fix for: Create Virtualbox image of a physical partition

Low Risk

There's a documented "internal" function that you might be interested in. You can create a "raw disk" image which basically passes all commands to the partition on your hard drive. That way, you can keep your Windows partition and attempt to boot it…
