I'm trying to install VirtualBox guest additions on Kali Linux 2018.1 with the kernel version 4.14.0 But when I try to install them from the guest additions ISO by running the VBoxLinuxAdditions.run file it gives the error for missing the linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-amd64 header. When I search the apt cache it doesn't come up but I have the 4.15.0 header installed. I also tried to install linux-headers-amd64 but it says that linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-amd64 has no installation candidate  say I should use the virtualbox-guest-x11 package and I installed it. But after a reboot absolutely nothing happens and the guest additions still don't work. I even tried installing the old headers manually but that bricked my installation. I'm quite lost and I didn't find any other solutions to this problem. I would appreciate help. EDIT: I added some more information but please tell me what would you like more. EDIT 2: Downvoting isn't going to help improve my question. Please give me pointers and I'll improve it

Since upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04, When I launch my VirtualBox virtual machine I get:  Failed to open a session for the virtual machine win7pro32bit. Implementation of the USB 2.0 controller not found! Because the USB 2.0 controller state is part of the saved VM state, the VM cannot be  started. To fix this problem, either install the 'Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack'  or disable USB 2.0 support in the VM settings (VERR_NOT_FOUND).  Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: Console Interface: IConsole {8ab7c520-2442-4b66-8d74-4ff1e195d2b6}   The solution to the  does NOT fix the problem:  sudo apt-get purge virtualbox sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install virtualbox   UPDATE: Also happens when upgrading VirtualBox itself to 5.0, within existing Ubuntu 14.04.

I tried to use my Virtual Box and this is the error I received - (I just updated to the new Ubuntu also) and I am VERY new at this Linux OS.

I regularly set up Virtualbox ubuntu setups to run as local webservers. I have set these up several times and never had an issue. However, something has changed:  1)VB guest additions no longer allow me to copy and paste (I'll worry about that later)  2)More importantly phpmyadmin no longer works as installed - Initially going to localhost/phpmyadmin gave a message that the page could not be found. So I have followed some instructions which told me to do the following in var/www:  sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin phpmyadmin   which has created a phpmyadmin directory in /var/www but now I get an error saying:      the mysqli extension is missing.   If I run phpinfo mysql and mysqli are listed.  All I have done so far is   sudo apt-get update   sudo apt-get install apache2 sudo apt-get install php5 sudo apt-get install mysql-server   and   sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin    I found a post of a similar question which suggested I should do   sudo apt-get install php5-mysql   (I've done this) and edit php.ini and uncomment the line:  extension=mysqli.so   This is not there, so I tried adding it but no joy. I have restarted apache and still no phpmyadmin.  I'm running a windows 7 machine and the guest os is ubuntu 12.04

When I start VirtualBox, I only have 32 bit operating systems available. After some research I followed the steps on  but to no avail. My host OS is 64 bit, Intel Virtualization Technology and VT-d are both enabled in the BIOS, and Hyper-V platform is disabled in the Windows Feature list, yet I still only am presented 32 bit operating systems.  I find these    and they seem to solve the problem for everyone, but not for me.   I also tried  the installation without luck. How can I fix this to run a 64 bit Linux OS in VB?  EDIT I also have the latest version of BIOS.  Edit: This question is not a duplicate of  as I state that the solution to that question did not solve this problem.

I updated from 14.04 to 16.04 and used katoolin to add some Kali tools. After restart, the boot up of Linux ran codes, but stopped at a certain point never to load login. So I reinstalled 16.04, ran updates and tried again. This time, the boot menu was changed to Kali as well as the OS name (I'm using Windows 7 dual boot with Ubuntu); login started in Ubuntu style without user name, had to type in the name... then it goes to the logo screen never to log in.  How can I use katoolin without it affecting the boot menu interface? Does this happen when the user selects the option 'add Kali repositories and updates'? Are the Kali repositories necessary? I'd much rather just install the tools and not mess with the Ubuntu interface.

I have Virtualbox 4.1.20 in Ubuntu 12.04 32 Bit (With PAE) and I want to run Ubuntu Server 64 Bit on the Guest. Is this possible?. I ask since I get the following warning:    I want to make sure that there is no option to "emulate" this. I have a 64 bit CPU that supports virtualization. The Intel DZ68DB motherboard with an Intel I7 2600 CPU.

So, I tried creating an OS with VirtualBox, and I got this error:  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.

This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.   So I did the obvious, running the Vboxdrv setup. I ran this command:  sudo service vboxdrv setup   I got an error while doing so.:  stopping kernel drivers...done.

I got this error:  /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: 334: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: /usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/build_in_tmp: not found   Any help? Thanks.
