Greetings. I am playing around with Solus KDE in gnome boxes and I've tried to share folders with the host (Solus Gnome). I've google it and the gnome boxes need spice-webdavd which is not in solus repository. I've tried with samba also, create folder on host and make it shareable but no luck.
Any other way?

    MTech I think I found what you are looking for, its called spice and not "spice-webdavd" in the repos.

    sudo eopkg install spice

      remoof Nope. I've tried that before. But thanks for your suggestion.

      When I install Fedora in gnome boxes, as soon as I install spice-webdavd (sudo dnf --refresh install spice-webdavd) in fedora I can share folders. So this is definitively missing in solus. But nevermind I will try virtualbox.

      I use qemu VMs for development and also ran into roadblocks getting shared folders working. Instead of going through gnome-boxes, I was using virt-manager to set up shared folders by adding a 9p type filesystem, per instructions here: http://nts.strzibny.name/how-to-set-up-shared-folders-in-virt-manager/

      I think when Solus is a guest, it lacks support for this type of filesystem. At least when I tried to mount it, it said I was missing then /sbin/mount.xxx for that particular type.

      It's on my to-do list to figure this out, when I find something out, I'll try to remember to update this thread.

      Please do. I've installed solus kde on virtualbox, but virtualbox is looking awful on gnome dark skins and also I was not able to share folder. I follow this page (https://getsol.us/articles/software/virtualbox/en/) to add vboxsf on the guest operating system. The folder is there but there's nothing inside and it should be. I remember the same thing was with budgie solus few months ago.
