Comments: The Guest Additions add functionality to guest OSes with
seamless integration of display and mouse.
A compatible xorg.conf will be placed in /etc/X11.
Using the predescribed bootcode "kmap=" will cause xorg.conf
to have the desired keymap.
Services will start during boot. Userspace utils can be
started from the menu OR automate by adding the line
"VBoxClient-all" to ~/.xsession.
Xorg must be restarted for these work.
Requires Xorg-7.4.tcz and
VBox-OSE-additions-modules-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz

Comments: This is only the shared folder support for running TC/MC
inside VirtualBox. Insert kernel module and then use
mount.vboxsf to mount folders shared through VirtualBox
sudo modprobe vboxvfs
sudo mount.vboxsf <sharename> <mountpoint>
Depends on VBox-OSE-additions-modules-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz

On my main desktop, I run TC in Vb as guest and share a folder from the host machine. It worked well until I updated to latest VBox-OSE-additions.tczl. Now I can't mount the shared folder anymore and I have following error:
mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such device

@florian: If you would have read the .info file you would have seen that you'll need to load the module manually (i.e. sudo modprobe vboxvfs).
Afterwards you should be able to use sudo mount.vboxsf <sharename> <mountpoint>. I just did a quick test with TC 2.9, and that seemed to have worked.
florian:
My bad. I didn't add the "sudo modprobe vboxvfs" which wasn't necessary in previous version of this extension. Thanks for the tip, it's working now.
Kingdomcome:
That change has gotten me a couple times too, and I made the change! I chose to move the modprobe out of the startup script and leave the choice of when to load the module up to the user. Im not sure if it will have a tremendous effect on boot time, but that was also a consideration.
For the users of the x11 additions, I found a problem with the permissions on one of the vbox devices and have resubmitted the modules extension with a fix. If you wish to use the x11 additions with the current extension you will need to run these commands before running VBoxClient or VBoxClient-all
--- Code: ---sudo chown vboxadd:daemon /dev/vboxuser
sudo chmod 666 /dev/vboxuser
