Description
Shell redirection to append to file does not work when file is on a shared folder.
For example, echo "text" >> file
does not append text at end of file, but overwrites the beginning of file.
Using host: Win XP SP2. Guest: Xubuntu 7.10. Shared folder on NTFS.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Please update your VirtualBox host installation as well as your guest additions to version 1.5.6 and try again. Shell redirection with appending should work there.
