I setup a Debian guest on a Debian host. I installed so many applications, I rebooted so many times, I took a few snapshots. Now I needed to do something with VirtualBox settings for that machine, so I shut it down. After making the settings, I wanted to start machine, but it didn't boot. It says "no bootable media". Of course, because no harddisks seem to be attached to the virtual machine. So I (re)attached the vdi image to the Sata slot. I booted, but the machine was in the original state. Snapshots could be seen in the Snapshots tab, but they are simply ignored.

How can I fix this?

Edit

I rebooted the pc, removed all my Virtual Machines, I even reinstalled VirtualBox. Here is the latest error:

Failed to open virtual machine located in /home/....-1.vbox.

Medium '/home/....-1-disk1.vdi' cannot be closed because it is still attached to 1 virtual machines.

Since one problem produces another, I asked a revelant question in a different post. I just had a workaround. Here it is: https://superuser.com/a/860506/187576
