1 检查系统内核版本

[root@Jeffery]# uname -a

Linux Jeffery 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jul 16 23:51:20UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



2 安装软件环境  

[root@Jeffery]# yum install gcc

[root@Jeffery]# yum install kernel-devel

[root@Jeffery]# yum install kernel-headers


这里可以先查看安装环境是否已经安装

rpm -q gcc


rpm -q kernel-devel

rpm -q kernel-headers


注：这步执行后的版kernel-devel和kernel-headers 的版本为

======================================================================================================

Package Arch Version Repository Size

======================================================================================================

Installing:

kernel-devel x86_64 2.6.18-308.16.1.el5 updates 5.7M

Transaction Summary

======================================================================================================

Install 1Package(s)

Upgrade 0Package(s)



3 升级系统内核

注：如果不升级内核的话，那么”kernel-devel和kernel-headers”与kenerl内核的版本不一致在第一步uname-a我们看到内核版本为2.6.18-194.el5

[root@Jeffery]# yum install kernel

升级完了内核，现在在来看下内核的版本变更过来了没有

[root@Jeffery]# uname -a

Linux Jeffery 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jul 16 23:51:20UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

还是没有变过来，这里要注意了。升级内核后一定要重启linux
4 安装软件包

[root@Jeffery]# rpm -ivhdkms-2.2.0.3-1.noarch.rpm

Preparing... ###########################################[100%]

1:dkms ########################################### [100%]

[root@Jeffery]# rpm -ivhVirtualBox-4.2-4.2.16_86992_el6-1.x86_64.rpm

warning: VirtualBox-4.1-4.1.10_76795_rhel5-1.x86_64.rpm: Header V4DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 98ab5139

Preparing... ###########################################[100%]

1:VirtualBox-4.1 ###########################################[100%]

注：先要安装dkms在装virtualbox，要不然会报错，会说你缺少依赖包



5 启动virtualbox

[root@Jeffery]# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [确定]

Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [确定]

Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMSError!echo

Your kernel headers for kernel 2.6.18-194.el5 cannot be foundat

/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.el5/build or/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.el5/source.

[失败]

(Failed, trying without DKMS)

Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules [失败]

失败了，为么呢？就是内核的原因，都说要重启了，看下grub配置文件

[root@Jeffery]# vim /boot/grub/grub.conf

# grub.conf generated by anaconda

#

# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes tothis file

# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that

# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.

# root (hd0,0)

# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sdb6

# initrd /initrd-version.img

#boot=/dev/sda

default=0

timeout=5

splashp_w_picpath=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

initrd /initrd-2.6.18-308.16.1.el5.img

这呢，虽然没重启但是也排在了首位，那么重启下看看

[root@Jeffery]# reboot

[root@Jeffery]# uname -a

Linux Jeffery 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jul 16 23:51:20UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[[root@Jeffery]# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
Stopping VirtualBox kernelmodules [确定]
Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernelmodules [确定]
Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules usingDKMS [确定]

看，VirtualBox 起来了

到此，virtualbox安装结束。啥？不知道咋用？问谷老师去。^_^linux



以上资料摘自互联网，加自己安装操作中整理。VirtualBox及dkms-2.2.0.3-1.noarch.rpm均在网上下的安装装，源里面没有啊。。。
