Could not install Guest Additions on Oracle VM 3.2.1

Hi,

I created a VM containing Oracle VM 3.2.1. It has an initial virtual machine (or "domain") running Linux in text mode. I installed X window and Gnome Packages and now I have a desktop up and running. I tried to install VBox guest additions and I'm getting the "headers for the current kernel were not found". However, the kernel-devel and kernel-headers packages are installed for the current kernel. Any other ideas? Are the kernel-debug packages needed?

Thanks in advance

Oracle VM is not VirtualBox. You can't do anything useful with VirtualBox Guest Additions in VMs hosted on top of Oracle VM Server.
