VirtualBox 3.2.8 for puppy 511 PET?

#1 Post by ilanrab »

Has anyone packaged the latest version of VirtualBox?

The 3.2.4 PET version that I located on the net had some dependency
issues: Running "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" errored out with a log entry
that a file in "/opt/VirtualBox/Src/..." was missing.

Has anyone created a complete PET package for VirtualBox 3.2.8?

Thanks in advance,

I have been watching this thread hoping for an answer. Maybe someone will respond. I wish I knew how to do it myself.

Load devx for your version
Load kernel souces for your kernel
to find kernel version, in terminal [ uname -r ]
Download the latest .run version from VitualBox not OSE.
in terminal [ adduser -D -H vboxusers ]
run the VBox.run.
That should do it.
Good luck
Depending on your version you may have to install a SDL pet and or
QT pet.
