Debian-based Linux distributions 安装 virtualbox

 

Add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

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

According to your distribution, replace 'vivid' by 'utopic', 'trusty', 'raring', 'quantal', 'precise', 'lucid', 'jessie', 'wheezy', or 'squeeze'.

(Up to version 3.2 the packages were located in the non-free section. Starting with version 4.0 they are located in the contrib section.)

The Oracle public key for apt-secure can be downloaded here. You can add this key with

sudo apt-key add oracle_vbox.asc

or combine downloading and registering:

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

Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <[email protected]>

(As of VirtualBox 3.2, the signing key was changed. The old Sun public key for apt-secure can be downloaded  here.)

To install VirtualBox, do

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-5.0

Replace virtualbox-5.0 by

• virtualbox-4.3 to install VirtualBox 4.3.30
• virtualbox-4.2 to install VirtualBox 4.2.32

Note: Ubuntu/Debian users might want to install the dkms package to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next apt-get upgrade. For Debian it is available in Lenny backports and in the normal repository for Squeeze and later. The dkms package can be installed through the Synaptic Package manager or through the following command:

sudo apt-get install dkms
