[GRASS-user] Running grass in virtualbox with shared folders

[knussear]

Hi all

I'm running grass7 in virtual box (tried both ubuntu mate and mint linux)
and trying to open a location/mapset located on a mounted shared folder.
Write permissions appear to work in the file browser, but I get an error
(pasted below) trying to start the grass gui. Any thoughts on how to fix?
