This guide is really distro agnostic, that is, it doesn’t apply only to Arch. Now you should have a working VirtualBox installation on Arch. Now we can successfully install VirtualBox. Then we need to install the kernel headers. A list of programs required will be printed.First, we need to install the GNU GCC compiler, GNU make, and Perl if they’re not installed. This applies if the modules for that version have never been compiled before.
If we tried to run the installation without these prerequisites, we would be informed that the kernel modules for VirtualBox failed to be compiled. So that will need to be installed if it’s not there. It builds those modules using the GCC compiler. It requires the headers for your currently running kernel to build the necessary modules. Installation depends on several programs. # replace 'x' with version Installing Dependencies Use ‘chmod’ to enable the execute (‘x’) flag. The file will need to be given rights to execute it.
Download Install Virtualbox in Arch Linux Make Virtualbox file executable It comes in the form of a self-extracting archive. Head to the VirtualBox Linux download page and select the “All distributions” version. VirtualBox was originally created by Sun Microsystems. Download Virtualbox It’s like having a separate computer running on top of your operating system.
If not, it is a program from Oracle that allows you to create virtual machines on your computer. Since Arch Linux is the target platform, we will need to install certain dependencies if they’re not there already.Ĭhances are you already know what VirtualBox is. Numerous aspects of this guide can also apply to any other Linux distribution. In this guide, I will show you how to install VirtualBox in Arch Linux.
