Virtual Box doesn't support shared disks though. So for rac you would need to 
do something else such as have an open filer system and do iscsi or nfs.

 Hi Robert

Check the services that are running on your windows platform. In some cases I 
have found that not all VMware services did not restart on reboot. 
Alternatively try Virtual Box from Sun, I've been using this for a few weeks 
after suffering all sorts of pain with VMware 2 and I am close to committing to 
that 100%
