To start with, am new to loading/starting VM images from Oracle VM Virtual Box Manager in OEL 5.0 64 bit box.
Steps that i have followed.
1. Launch the Oracle VM Virtual Box Manager.
2. Import the SampleApp*.ovf file and configure the settings.
3. Now, try to start the image.
Following Error message is displayed:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux Kernal driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
Then I ran the command as root : /usr/local/packages/aime/ias/run_as_root '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]

(Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong)
[aime1@adc6170081 ~/v207image]$ vi /var/log/vbox-install.log
Makefile:175: Warning: using /usr/src/linux as the source directory of your Linux kernel. If this is not correct, specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.
Then i did run this command :
# yum install kernel-devel
/usr/local/packages/aime/ias/run_as_root 'yum install kernel-devel'
