|
|
Hi
my virtualbox stopped working . When I launch an os in it say F27(fedora 27) it complains
Code: | The virtual machine 'F27' has terminated unexpectedly during startup because of signal 5. |
I suspect it might be kernel configuration coz I installed docker yesterday and configured followed the advise on the gentoo page.
Any one to help

According to man 7 signal, signal 5 is SIGTRAP. This can happen if the program tried to trap to a debugger, but no debugger was present to catch the trap. If you suspect a kernel configuration change, why not reboot back to the kernel that lacks that change? What change(s) did you make? Exactly what page did you read? |

Thanks for your response.
yeah
I think I have the same kernel 4.12.12
I uninstall the vm and reinstall a stable virtualbox . I have this error
Code: | 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. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/sbin/vboxconfig'
as root.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.
|
I am trying to sort it out slowly.
Any idea is welcome |

oh
How can I see if they are loaded or not . Just can not work. I think it s virtualbox problem . it still can not work whatever I do. I am now feeling like using an alternative when I need. The problem started when I configured the kernel and installed docker.
Code: |
jules@grodos ~ $ VirtualBox
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (4.12.12-gentoo) or it failed to
load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by
for m in vbox{drv,netadp,netflt}; do modprobe $m; done
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
Qt WARNING: libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
^C
jules@grodos ~ $ su
Password:
grodos /home/jules # modprobe vboxdrv
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vboxdrv': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
grodos /home/jules # modprobe vboxnetadp

grodos /home/jules # modprobe vboxnetflt

I might have mixed lot of stuff |

"Unknown symbol" is usually from upgrading your kernel without upgrading modules. (or similarly some sort of mismatch between the modules and the running kernel)
You can try "depmod -a" but I don't think it would help here much. |

I just remove uninstall virtualbox with all its modules .

Code: |
cd /usr/src/linux
make clean
make
make modules_install
make install
mount /dev/sda1
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
|
and bingo |
