I want to run Windows as a guest system on my Sl6.3 box.
Installing vbox from the Oracle repository gives me an error trying to
create the kernel modules.
When trying to do it manually, I run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv -setup and get:
Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS
Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64
cannot be found at
/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64/build or
/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64/source.
and when I look for those file I see a broken link
ll /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64/build
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 51 Jun 20 09:54
/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64/build ->
../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64
It looks like that file should be linked to:
ls /usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-279.9.1.el6.x86_64/
arch drivers include kernel Makefile.common net
security tools
block firmware init lib mm samples
sound usr
crypto fs ipc Makefile Module.symvers scripts
System.map virt
I'm going try just fixing the link. but it seems like the kernel-header
rpm has a problem. Or am I missing something? Would not be the first
time or even a rare occurrence.
