VBOX Failed

[pjsp92]

someone help me to install Vbox in bt5? .. I get the following error


root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
* Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
* Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
* Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS
* Failed, trying without DKMS
* Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules
* Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong
root@bt:~#

Vbox-install.log ->

Makefile:169: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directo$

sorry my English, I'm Spanish

prepare-kernel-sources
cd /usr/src/linux
cp -rf include/generated/* include/linux
and then compile vbox tools

Thanks Nexxor, this worked perfectly. I should remember to search BT first and then google *slaps hand to face*

I would very much appreciate if you indicated a source of documentation of why was necessary to copy those files from one folder to another and how did you reach this solution (I'm trying to learn to debug these kind of errors myself).

Many thanks.
