Hi jacob

I do not understand what you are doing.
Normally try to do the following.
Close the file list or other tools that would be point to a file in  
one of your machine.
Zip the image and the change file (do not rename them).
Tranfer the files and drop the image ont he vm. It should work.
I did all the image and distribution for my book on  a mac and for pc  
I just include another VM on the zip file.
