Well, I think you want to remove the 386 kernel image and use the
generic one instead. See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-
discuss/2008-March/003743.html
To do so, install linux-image-generic and remove linux-image-386 (and its
Depends: linux-image-2.6.24-12-386, linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-12-386).
Then you should install virtualbox-ose-modules-generic instead of
virtualbox-ose-modules-386.
Of course, you can have both variants of the kernel being installed, but
you should make sure that the modules are installed also (through the
linux-image-X meta package) and that the better image is selected during
boot in Grub (generic).
I'm leaving this bug open, because I want to check what can be done to improve
the upgrade experience: E.g., if there's a generic kernel module installed in
Gutsy, it should install virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.
E.g., "dpkg -l | grep virtualbox-ose-modules | grep -- -generic" =>
virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.
Gutsy only has modules for the generic and server variants, so this
should be quite simple and needs to be added to update-manager.
** Changed in: virtualbox-ose (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => In Progress
** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: virtualbox-ose => update-manager
Importance: Undecided => Medium
