Type: note
Description: Creating group 'vboxusers'
Users of VirtualBox must be member of that group in order to have write
permissions to /dev/vboxdrv. Otherwise starting of VMs will not be possible.
Template: virtualbox-ose/module-compilation-failed
Type: note
Description: Compilation of the kernel module FAILED!
VirtualBox will not start until this problem is fixed. Please consult
/var/log/vbox-install.log to find out why the kernel module does not compile.
Most probably the kernel sources were not found. Install them and execute
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
as root.
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Should the vboxdrv kernel module be compiled now?
Unable to find a precompiled module for the current kernel!
.
Without a suitable kernel module you will never be able to start VMs. It is
strongly recommended to compile a kernel module now. The kernel headers and
the tools to build kernel modules (gcc, make, binutils, ...) are required.
However, in case a suitable kernel module already exists at another place you
might want to override the default position by setting KDIR=<full_path_to_vboxdrv_module>
in /etc/default/virtualbox-ose. The compilation can also be done later by executing
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
as root.
Template: virtualbox-ose/delete-old-modules
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Delete old modules?
Old vboxdrv modules found. It is recommended to purge these modules as they might not
work together with this version of VirtualBox. The module re-compilation can be
forced later by executing
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
as root
Template: virtualbox-ose/update_version_change
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Proceed with VirtualBox upgrade?
You are about to update VirtualBox to a new upstream version. Make sure to discard or
merge all snapshots and saved states before you proceed because VM states are version
specific.

Type: note
Description: Old installation found
An old installation of VirtualBox was found. To install this package the old package
has to be removed first. Have a look at /etc/vbox/vbox.cfg determine the installation
directory of the previous installation. After uninstalling the old package remove the file
