| qemu-img convert -O vdi gnome.qcow2 gnome.vdi | |
| #if its a raw image then: | |
| VBoxManage convertdd opnstk.raw VBox.vdi --format VDI |
qemu-img convert -f qcow2 gnome.qcow2 -O vdi gnome.vdi
worked fine for me as shown in the README; the -O parameter is non-positional and -f is not required if the input file is not raw - if it is raw it's still not required if it ends in .raw.
