Moving VirtualBox to a new machine

1) Copy the hard disk to the new machine.
2) Register it in VB (File->Virtual Medial Manager)
3) Create a new machine with the same name AND select the above HD for it and check settings (I had to change System-Processor->Enable PAE/NX + Network to Bridged).
4) If eth0 is gone!
Edit the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Delete the line with eth0 and change eth1 to eth0.
Restart :)
