Hi Alexander, As Alvaro said, VirtualBox needs hardware support for virtualization.
This means you won't be able to run it inside an OpenVZ container, or inside most virtual servers or cloud servers. You need to run it either on bare metal (best), or inside VMWare as it exposes the necessary support for nested virtualization (slower). Hope this helps, -- Ronan On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 4:37 PM, Alexander Farley <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, I'm having some problems installing Vagrant, apparently because of the > kernel running on my Ubuntu 14.04 installation (which is running inside > OpenVZ on a Beastnode VPS). > > When attempting to run 'vagrant up', I get: > VirtualBox is complaining that the kernel module is not loaded > > Following this, it seems that the problem is because kernel headers aren't > installed.
