Debian 9 Installation Virtual Box

1. Go to the official website to download the Deb package, such as the package name:

2. Installation

sudo dpkg-i virtualbox-5. 2_5. 2.18-124319_debian_stretch_amd64.deb

3. The following problems may occur:

The above has prompted us to lack GCC make Perl package, Linux kernel header file: Linux-headers-amd64 linux-headers-4.9.0-8-amd64

We only need to install:

sudo Install GCC sudo Install  Make sudo Install Perl sudo Install linux-headers-amd64sudoinstall linux-headers-4.9. 0-8-AMD64

Final execution:

sudo /sbin/vboxconfig

There should be no big problem with virtual box.

In addition, virtual box and USB expansion pack can go to the official website to view the installation.
