Running COS 7.1708 On VirtualBox 5.1.28

Anyone else having issues getting the VB drivers to load on 1708?

I keep gettting an “Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel…” message.

I do have kernel-devel installed and I had no issues running 1611 on the same host.

Thanks

    I think you mean VirtualBox 5.1.26. And yes, there’s some trouble with it with the latest update. Check out the CentOS 1708 release notes.

    Workaround is to use VirtualBox 5.1.26 with the 5.1.27
    VBoxGuestAdditions.iso. Tried this out here, works perfectly.

  • No, I really did mean VirtualBox 5.1.28. Not sure if they released it today, but I downloaded it today…. :-)

  • Can confirm that you can build the graphics drivers for CentOS 1708 on VirtualBox 5.1.28 with the 5.2.0 Beta 2 Additions
