CentOS6.3 install VBoxAdditions

CentOS6.3 is installed on the VirtualBox Virtual Machine. After installation, you are advised to install the VBoxAdditions enhancement function. The main purpose is to share files between the virtual machine and the host machine.

1. Update the kernel. The default kernel for CentOS 6.3 is 2.6.32-279. el6.i686:

# uname -r

2.6.32-279.el6.i686

The kernel-devel package is required to install the enhancement feature. Ensure that the kernel-devel and kernel versions are consistent. View the kernel-devel version in the software source:

]# yum info kernel-develLoaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, securityLoading mirror speeds from cached hostfile* base: mirrors.163.com* extras: mirrors.163.com* updates: mirrors.163.comAvailable PackagesName    : kernel-develArch    : i686Version   : 2.6.32Release   : 279.19.1.el6Size    : 7.6 MRepo    : updatesSummary   : Development package for building kernel modules to match the      : kernelURL     : http://www.kernel.org/License   : GPLv2Description : This package provides kernel headers and makefiles sufficient to      : build modules against the kernel package.

The current kernel-devel version is 2.6.32-279.19.1.e16. Therefore, you must upgrade the kernel:

# yum update kernel

After the upgrade, you must restart the system to use the new kernel.

2. Install kernel-devel and gcc.

# yum install kernel-devel gcc gcc-c++

3. Install the enhancement feature. Go to the root directory of the enhancement disc and run the installation command in Linux:
