Error installing VBOX2.24 in Fedora 9

[sunardo_panjaitan]

Hello all..
I'm a newbie. i get a problem while installing VirtualBox in Fedora Core 9.

Code: Select all

Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:VirtualBox             ########################################### [100%]

Creating group 'vboxusers'. VM users must be member of that group!

No precompiled module for this kernel found -- trying to build one. Messages
emitted during module compilation will be logged to /var/log/vbox-install.log.

Compilation of the kernel module FAILED! VirtualBox will not start until this
problem is fixed. Please consult /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out why the
kernel module does not compile. Most probably the kernel sources are not found.
Install them and execute

  /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

as root.

and i see the log in /var/log/vbox-install.log

Code: Select all

[root@messenger Download]# cat /var/log/vbox-install.log
** Compiling vboxdrv
Makefile:145: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.  Stop.

You must prep the OS to be able to compile the drivers

Code: Select all

su yum install kernel-headers kernel-devel gcc

Reboot then install the guest additions.

Watch the terminal window closely for errors and fix accordingly.
