Virtual Box es una herramienta muy 煤til para virtualizar varios Sistemas Operativos utilizado para pruebas de todo tipo.

Algo com煤n es que la configuraci贸n del BIOS evita virtualizar Sistemas Operativos de 64bits.

Por ello debemos Habilitar la Virtualizaci贸n en la BIOS, que por lo general esta dentro del Men煤 Seguridad 贸 Configuraci贸n del Sistema (esto varia dependiendo de la marca de Mainboard), dentro de esos men煤s buscamos alguna Opci贸n que mencione la Virtualizaci贸n y la "habilitamos".

Si tienen dudas de como hacerlo pueden visitar el siguiente video que encont茅 en Youtube, existen muchas gu铆as de como hacerlo y estas var铆an seg煤n la marca de Mainboard.

Instalaci贸n

La guia esta echa para usuarios de Gnu-Linux y puntualmente para las Distros de CentOs/RedHat/Fedora que tienen repositorios similares.

Creamos el Repositorio de Virtual Box en:

  • cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
  • vim virtualbox.repo
  • A帽adimos el siguiente texto: 
name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch - VirtualBox
baseurl=http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc

Ejecutamos los siguientes comandos: 

wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc
  • rpm --import oracle_vbox.asc
  • yum install VirtualBox

Paquetes dependientes de Virtual Box - VBox_Tools

  • yum update kernel
  • yum install dkms binutils patch
  • yum install gcc make libgomp glibc-headers
  • yum install kernel-headers kernel-devel

La instalaci贸n de estos paquetes pueden evitar errores durante la instalaci贸n del Virtual Box, o cuando se instalen las VBox_Tools.

Generalmente los errores suceden cuando no coincide la versi贸n del Kernel con la versi贸n del kernel-headers y kernel-devel.

Creating group 'vboxusers'. VM users must be member of that group!
