Building virtual box 6.0.22, trying to load kext on MAC

Post by matrixhooda »

I was able to compile virtualbox sources on High Sierra MacOS.

Now 5.2.20 was working fine when i was loading the VBoxDrv.kext file.

With 6.0.22, when i tried to load VBoxDrv.kext

sudo kextutil -v 2 /Applications/VBoxDrv.kext
I am getting the following output now.

Code: Select all

Defaulting to kernel file '/System/Library/Kernels/kernel'
/Applications/VBoxDrv.kext appears to be loadable (not including linkage for on-disk libraries).
