Mount a host folder inside a VirtualBox ubuntu guest

To mount a host folder inside a VirtualBox ubuntu guest,  you have to create a mounpoint, that is, a directory in your Ubuntu which will reflect the shared folder from Windows:
# sudo mkdir /media/windows-share
Of course you may choose an alternative path for your mountpoint. With your mountpoint created you can now mount the shared folder, like this:
# sudo mount -t vboxsf folder-name /media/windows-share
Where folder-name will be the name you assigned for this folder when you were adding it in the shared folders list.
You could use the /etc/init.d/rc.local script to execute these commands on startup to have the shared folders automatically mounted every time you start your Ubuntu VirtualBox.
