Today I have installed a Centos 6 in my VirtualBox machine and i tried to create a shared folder to interchange file between de host and guest machine.I have tried to add the GuetsAditions "inserting" the CD and installing
When i tried to install the software executing the autorun.sh
I recived in the same window the next error:
Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong
When I opened the file the error is the next one:
Makefile:181: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR= and run Make again. Stop
The problem is that you not have installed all the linux headers properly in your machine.
I recommend two steps:
1 - yum update
In order to update all your virual machine specially if have been recently installed.
2 - yum install kernel-devel
This package provides kernel headers and makefiles sufficient to build modules against the kernel package.
Restart your Centos virtual machine and try to execute again the autorun.sh
Evething works!!!
