I have a CentOS guest OS running without X11. Is there anyway I can paste text from the host clipboard into the virtual terminals or highlight text in the vt via the console mouse daemon and paste it into the host OS?
I am aware I can ssh into the guest with putty. I want to know if its possible from the console.
No. Neither gpm nor the Linux kernel provide hooks for VirtualBox to inject clipboard data.
No. See this outstanding request which is 6 years old already.
