HOW TO: Install VirtualBox 1.5.0 under Puppy 2.17 Seamlessly

[kjoe]

I've tried to include virtualbox into a live cd, but could not fix one problem:

Although I've compiled for a certain kernel, virtualbox always asks for 'make' (from dev.sfs) to start, as it wants to compile a module again. I can't understand this behaviour, because compilation was done under the same kernel and the module (xxx.ko) is there in the file system.

In fact I tried to produce a 'virutalbox.pet', but did not succeed.

Any suggestions?

PS: I do not remember the module name since my trial took place some weeks ago. Sorry for that.

Hello,

Translation Online
Attention, links pointing to VirtualBox may have changed, here's the new link downloading.

Update for ToutouLinux 03-01.1 with VirtualBox 1.5.6
All the presentation functions, however there is an update to make and respect certain information.
Update of the points:
1) change dev_217.sfs by dev_301.sfs
2) change Puppy-kernel-source_217.sfs by kernel-src_301.sfs
To respect the points:
4) and 5) to use the packages mentioned, all other packages is likely to cause a dysfunction of “ToutouLinux

Hi,

I installed VirtualBox successfully but can't get it to see my DVD drive. Ian seemed to have had the same problem but I don't know if he's around anymore. Anyone know how to get it to be seen? Vbox only sees /dev/loop1-5

Puppy 3.01

Battleshooter, you might like to try Vuppy - it's based on Puppy v4.0 and has Vbox already installed.

You can find it here:
