Installing 4.3.2 on Mac OSX 10.9.0 -- Kernel Extension popup

Post by stevemaser »

Noticing that 4.3.2 was available this morning, I downloaded it and installed it.

With the Security & Privacy Sys Pref setting of "allow apps downloaded from" to be "Anywhere", when I ran the 4.3.2 installer, I got this popup box:

Kernel extension is not from an identified developer

The kernel extension at "/Library/Application Support/VirtualBox/VboxDrv.kext" is not from an identified developer but will still be loaded.

Please contact the kernel extension vendor for updated software.


Once I click OK for *that* box, a second box pops up with the same message that references 3 other .kext files:

VBoxUSB.kext
VBoxNetFit.kext
VBoxNetAdp.kext





So, I'm contacting!

You're not the only one. Oracle is aware of the warning.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

I have to reload the kernel extensions after every reboot.. This might help.
