I’ve try it but gave me this error:

ERROR: code E_FAIL (0×80004005) – Unspecified error (extended info not available)
Context: “OpenHardDisk(src, AccessMode_ReadWrite, false, Bstr(“”), false, Bstr(“”), srcDisk.asOutParam())” at line 636 of file VBoxManageDisk.cpp

In the latest version of Virtual Box (v 3.2.4) you can use the clonehd command in vboxmanage to do this in one step. Just use the command like this:

vboxmanage clonehd myVHDimage.vhd newVDIimage.vdi -format vdi

This will create a new file, newVDIimage.vdi

As of VirtualBox 2.2.4, you can use the VBoxManage internalcommand “sethduuid” to modify the UUID of VHD files, eg

VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid XPSP3withIE62008Dec.vhd

The VHD files don’t even need to registered with the Virtual Media Manager.
