I am trying to test ReactOS in Virtualbox. When I fired up
virtualbox I received errors saying: --------------------- One or more virtual hard disks, CD/DVD or floppy media are not currently accessible. As a result, you will not be able to operate virtual machines that use these media until they become accessible later. Press Check to open the Virtual Media
Manager window and see what media are inaccessible, or press Ignore to ignore this message. ----------------------

If I click past it and try to power up the ReactOS vm, I get: ---------------- Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908) The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing: '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track if Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. ----------------- The problem is that '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv' does not exist. Neither does '/dev/vboxdrv'. Am I somehow missing a package that should have been installed? Have I missed a step somewhere in installing virtualbox? How do I get vboxdrv installed? Marc |
