How to convert a TBI image to a VMDK or VHD file
Posted: Sat May 18, 2013 2:17 pm
Sorry for asking this. I saw there where already similar topics but those ones didn't gave me the right answers to get it to work over here.
And I don't want to hijack someone else's topic.
I want to run my TBI images in VMWare Player. So I want to convert them to VMDK or VHD.
I have BootIt BM, Image for DOS and TeraByte OS Deployment Tool Suite Pro...
I understood from the manual that you could use the copyp2v.tbs with Image for DOS to do the trick. But it doesn't.
The manual says : "Use this helpful script to automate converting a physical machine to a virtual machine. Also requires Image for Windows, Image for DOS, or Image for Linux be installed or available in the current directory along with OSDTOOL.TBS."
Here it asks for imagew.exe which is Image for Windows... and then it won't continue any further...
I tried to rename image.exe to imagew.exe but that didn't work...
So I tried to execute Image for DOS in BootIt BM and tried the Restore to Virtual Drive option.
(although the way I read it, it only restores into a virtual Drive. Not converting it to a Virtual Drive.)
But When I have to select the target I can only select the C drive which is BIBM and is only 8MB with only 1MB of free space...
I'm lost...
Any help would be appreciated.
How do I convert a TBI image to a VMDK or VHD file..?
