I haven't the slighest idea how to forward the Android device connection from my Mac OS X to the container itself.\r\n\r\nI think the problem lies in the missing device descriptor (in `/dev`), since Mac OS X does not make them but uses the IOKit Registry instead (which I read about on http://stackoverflow.com/a/11787544/1453912).\r\n\r\nAnyone who can help me out here? I'm unexperienced with device descriptors, mounting, etc. in Mac OS X.\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/boot2docker/boot2docker/issues/comments/70669104","html_url":"https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker/issues/707#issuecomment-70669104","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/boot2docker/boot2docker/issues/707","id":70669104,"user":{"login":"tiborvass","id":827131,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/827131?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass","html_url":"https://github.com/tiborvass","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tiborvass/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-20T15:16:09Z","updated_at":"2015-01-20T15:16:09Z","body":"@mauvm before doing anything with Docker you'll need to forward the USB device into the VM. Boot2docker does not do that automatically as far as i know.\r\n\r\nYou should be able to modify the VM settings in VirtualBox's UI, if you stop the VM. But if you want it to be scriptable, you should use VBoxManage."}}
