Description
For testing latest versions of VirtualBox for Fedora and epel7. The project starts on Fedora 23 but is available for latest branches .
Warning: Time to time use dnf distro-sync to be sure that you are using last version, copr is also a place where in test my builds , so I often do builds without bump the release.
Installation Instructions
dnf copr enable sergiomb/vboxfor23
on epel7
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sergiomb/vboxfor23/repo/epel-7/sergiomb-vboxfor23-epel-7.repo
In host (the master):
dnf install VirtualBox kernel-devel-$(uname -r) akmod-VirtualBox
akmods
systemctl restart systemd-modules-load.service
dmesg | grep -i vbox
or In a vm guest system to install Fedora VirtualBox-guest-additions please do:
dnf install VirtualBox-guest-additions kernel-devel-$(uname -r)
akmods
