Unable to access shared folder using Virtualbox 6.0 (openSUSE)
For my VM, I tried to set up a shared directory as follows: enter image description here
However, using the terminal, I cannot seem to find the "/media/" directory under which the shared directory is supposed to be found. enter image description here
I also have been unable to locate the shared directory directly:
enter image description here
Based on some previous answers here, I have:
Installed Extension pack for 6.0.0 enter image description here
Installed Guest Additions. enter image description here
Edited the file /etc/group. Changed line vboxsf:x:999 and added at the end :myusername snd saved. enter image description here
Restarted the VM multiple times.
Removed Guest Additions and added them again.
If you know anything that might help me, I would very much appreciate that.

I was having the same problem, until I've run the Guest Additions from the command line (sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run).
Then I've discovered that I was missing the following packages: gcc make perl.
Then I've installed them and run again the installer from command line (sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run).
Next reboot the system.
After that the shared folders are correctly configured.
