I follow the preceding instructions on my wheezy machine (I'm never
upgrading to jessie), and here's what happens:

================================================================
slitt@mydesq2:~/vagrant$ vagrant up
VirtualBox is complaining that the installation is incomplete. Please
run `VBoxManage --version` to see the error message which should contain
instructions on how to fix this error.
slitt@mydesq2:~/vagrant$ VBoxManage --version
WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
         Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and the
appropriate headers, most likely linux-headers-amd64.

         You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
4.1.18_Debianr78361
slitt@mydesq2:~/vagrant$
================================================================

I installed Vagrant from the .deb off the website, and I installed
virtualbox-ose-dkms and linux-headers-amd64 already. I spoze I could
find some mknod command to make /dev/vboxdrv, but suspect that would
just make things worse.

Any idea how to run this on Wheezy, or how to start narrowing down this
problem I'm having?

Thanks,
