[ModEdit; related ticket: #17436]

Please update your VirtualBox installation to the latest test build: ≥120181 (5.2.x) or ≥120178 (5.1.x).
Hello, I ran a dist-upgrade this morning, and attempted to reinstall the Guest Additions on my Kali distro. The Guest additions failed to install because it was missing the headers, so I tried installing the kali3-amd64 headers.

Unfortunately, after restarting the system, I immediately get a crash whenever I select kali3 (even recovery mode). As stated in the subject, kali1 starts just fine, but I can't install the guest additions, meaning I'm stuck at 800x600 resolution.

Here's the relevant part of the log:

Anyone else experiencing this with kali3?

Take a look at https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/17436
There seems to be a barrage of errors with updated Linux guests and VERR_PGM_INVALID_CR3_ADDR Guru Meditations really lately...

Thanks, looks like it's already been fixed in an internal build (r70948).

Fixed in r70498 (internally 120115)
So, unless you see a test build (or a release) with a revision greater than 120115, you'd have to compile VirtualBox from sources. ;)

We've put out some new test builds which should include the fix for this issue. Enjoy.
