hi.
I am using fedora 11
I installed sun virtual box,through rpm package download from here
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
I created new virtual machine,when i start the new virtual machine,it show
the following error
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine BOSS 2.
Virtual machine 'BOSS 2' has terminated unexpectedly during startup.
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. Re-setup the kernel module by
executing
'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS
package
first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the
vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.
