Starting the VirtualBox Guest Additions [FAILED] in Fedora18

Post by Rupam »

Hi, I've installed Fedora 18 32bit guest into a Oracle VM Virtualbox running on a windows 7 host. Previously I've installed Fedora 16 as the host machine and everything was working fine. Now after installing Fedora 18 i tried to install virtual-guest addition but there is some issue. I guess its BUG.

I had followers all the procedures correctly to install the VirtualBoxGuestAdditions
I am getting this error.

Starting the VirtualBox Guest Additions [FAILED] (modprobe vboxguest failed)


Best Regards,
