How do you edit the .vhd filesystem for MOOS?
To edit the files in the filesystem for MOOS you will need to have at least 100MB or more space on your drive
Go to where you downloaded MOOS and open the folder and go to the Tools folder, then go to grub2, this is our bootloader, the filesystem for MOOS is located within the bootloader, so go to boot > and double click initrd.vhd
You may get a security warning when you double click initrd.vhd asking if you want to open the file, click Yes so you mount the drive
Then Windows Explorer will open the .vhd file, from here it's your choice to do what you want to the drive, add or remove files. Once you are finished click Eject so we can continue onto Step 4
Once ejected open your MOOS Project in Visual Studio 2022 and click the VMware or Qemu option and it will compile the ISO as well as the initrd.vhd file you edited
Next you will see your files appear on the desktop. You are now finished and you can edit, mount, read, write and format the drive, thanks for reading, happy developing!
