I have upgraded Oracle virtual box to its newest version 5.2.12. Installed ubuntu 18.04 and I'm unable to mount shared folder to specified location or remove prefix (sf_). Vbox addition are installed. I will set share in Vbox: permanent and automatically reconnect.
After that add my user in to vboxsf group
root@data:/home/user# usermod -a -G vboxsf user
by removing prefix I will get this error
root@data:/home/user# VBoxControl guestproperty set /VirtualBox/GuestAdd/SharedFolders/MountPrefix "/"

According to this VirtualBox ticket: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/17583
This is intentional as we did some fixes in that area. Please change that parameter from the host side using VBoxManage instead. - pentagonik
I was able to perform this with the same command from the host side via the following command:
VBoxManage guestproperty set [VM Name] /VirtualBox/GuestAdd/SharedFolders/MountPrefix "/"
VBoxManage guestproperty set [VM Name] /VirtualBox/GuestAdd/SharedFolders/MountDIR "/home/user"
After trying this however, my Ubuntu 18.04 VM still mounts it under /media/ with the prefix sf_, so I'm not sure this even works right now.
