在Ubuntu 12.10上安裝VirtualBox

首先，根據以下官方指引進行安裝：

https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

因此，根據你的作業系統的版本號碼在/etc/apt/sources.list添加以下記錄：

deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian trusty contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian saucy contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian raring contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian quantal contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian precise contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian lucid contrib non-free  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian wheezy contrib  deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian squeeze contrib non-free  

1) 我們使用的是Ubuntu 12.10，所以需要添加到/etc/apt/sources.list的記錄為：

deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian quantal contrib

 

2) 下載並註冊Orace的apt-secure公用密鑰：

wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - 

3) 安裝VirtualBox：

sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install virtualbox-4.3  

4) Ubuntu/Debian使用者可能需要安裝dkms包來確保當Linux核心版本更改時VirtualBox主機核心模組也被更新：

sudo apt-get install dkms

5) 啟動VirtualBox，出現一個警告：

[email protected]:/home/aegis# virtualboxWARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module         available for the current kernel (3.5.0-17-generic) or it failed to         load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by           sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup         You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

6) 運行剛才的警告讓我啟動並執行命令：

[email protected]:/home/aegis# sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setupStopping VirtualBox kernel modules ...done.Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules ...done.Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMSError! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.5.0-17-generic cannot be found.Please install the linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic package,or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it‘s located ...failed!  (Failed, trying without DKMS)Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules ...failed!  (Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong)

7) 這次我們安裝剛才的錯誤所說的linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic：

[email protected]:/home/aegis# sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.5.0-17-genericReading package lists... DoneBuilding dependency tree       Reading state information... DoneThe following NEW packages will be installed:  linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 473 not upgraded.Need to get 946 kB of archives.After this operation, 11.2 MB of additional disk space will be used.Get:1 http://cn.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic amd64 3.5.0-17.28 [946 kB]Fetched 946 kB in 2s (404 kB/s)                         Selecting previously unselected package linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic.(Reading database ... 142701 files and directories currently installed.)Unpacking linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic (from .../linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic_3.5.0-17.28_amd64.deb) ...Setting up linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic (3.5.0-17.28) ...Examining /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d.run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 3.5.0-17-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic

8) 再跑一次/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup命令：

[email protected]:/home/aegis# sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setupStopping VirtualBox kernel modules ...done.Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules ...done.Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS ...done.Starting VirtualBox kernel modules ...done.

9) 再次啟動VirtualBox，看起來沒有問題了：
