VirtualBox 4.2.4 for ALL VERSION Linux

7:54 AM Unknown No comments



VirtualBox 4.2.4 for Linux

Note: The package architecture has to match the Linux kernel architecture, that is, if you are running a 64-bit kernel, install the appropriate AMD64 package (it does not matter if you have an Intel or an AMD CPU). Mixed installations (e.g. Debian/Lenny ships an AMD64 kernel with 32-bit packages) are not supported. To install VirtualBox anyway you need to setup a 64-bit chroot environment.
Please choose the appropriate package for your Linux distribution:
You might want to compare the
to verify the integrity of downloaded packages.
The SHA256 checksums should be favored as the MD5 algorithm must be treated as insecure!

Oracle Linux

Users of Oracle Linux 5 and 6 can use the public yum  repository and enable the el5_addons (OEL5) or the ol6_addons (OL6). After that, do
yum install VirtualBox-4.2
to the latest maintenance release of VirtualBox 4.2.x.

Debian-based Linux distributions

Note: VirtualBox has been moved from non-free to contrib with 4.0, so please adjust your repository settings.
Add one of the following lines according to your distribution to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian precise contrib
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian oneiric contrib
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian natty contrib
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian maverick contrib non-free
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian lucid contrib non-free
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian karmic contrib non-free
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian hardy contrib non-free
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian wheezy contrib
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian squeeze contrib non-free
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian lenny contrib non-free
(Up to version 3.2 the packages were located in the non-free section, starting with version 4.0 are located in the contrib section)
The Oracle public key for apt-secure can be downloaded  here. You can add this key with
sudo apt-key add oracle_vbox.asc
or combine downloading and registering:
wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
The key fingerprint is
7B0F AB3A 13B9 0743 5925  D9C9 5442 2A4B 98AB 5139
Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@virtualbox.org>
(As of VirtualBox 3.2, the signing key was changed. The old Sun public key for apt-secure can be downloaded  here.)
To install VirtualBox, do
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-4.2
Replace virtualbox-4.2 by
  • virtualbox-4.1 to install VirtualBox 4.1.22
  • virtualbox-4.0 to install VirtualBox 4.0.16
  • virtualbox-3.2 to install VirtualBox 3.2.14
  • virtualbox-3.1 to install VirtualBox 3.1.8
  • virtualbox-3.0 to install VirtualBox 3.0.14
  • virtualbox-2.2 to install VirtualBox 2.2.4
  • virtualbox-2.1 to install VirtualBox 2.1.4
  • virtualbox-2.0 to install VirtualBox 2.0.12
  • virtualbox to install VirtualBox 1.6.6
Note: Ubuntu/Debian users might want to install the dkms package to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt andvboxnetadp) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next apt-get upgrade. For Debian it is available in Lenny backports and in the normal repository for Squeeze and later. The dkms package can be installed through the Synaptic Package manager or through the following command:
sudo apt-get install dkms
What to do when experiencing The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG ... when refreshing the packages from the repository?
# sudo -s -H
# apt-get clean
# rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*
# rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/*
# apt-get clean
# apt-get update

RPM-based Linux distributions

Starting with VirtualBox 3.0.12 we provide a yum-style repository for Oracle Linux/Fedora/RHEL/openSUSE. Note that 3.0.x .rpm packages are namedVirtualBox-3.0.x while 3.1.x .rpm packages are named VirtualBox-3.1-3.1.x. This naming scheme allows to use the older 3.0.x packages without changing the repository.
Furthemore, all .rpm packages are signed. The Oracle public key for rpm can be downloaded  here. You can add this key (not necessary for yum users, see below!) with
sudo rpm --import oracle_vbox.asc
or combine downloading and registering:
wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | rpm --import -
The key fingerprint is
7B0F AB3A 13B9 0743 5925  D9C9 5442 2A4B 98AB 5139
Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@virtualbox.org>
After importing the public key, the package signature can be checked with
rpm --checksig PACKAGE_NAME
Note that importing the key is not necessary for yum users (Oracle Linux/Fedora/RHEL/CentOS) when using one of the virtualbox.repo files from below as yum downloads and imports the public key automatically!
The package signature is checked by yum/zypper as well:
Note: Users of Fedora/Mandriva might want to install the dkms package (not available on openSUSE) to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next kernel update.
