Don't have this vboxdrv module? The virtual machine cannot be installed. Forgot?

@debianfan - I haven't had that in my configs. Only module you could try is: modprobe vboxguest
I have never set vboxsf_fs , but I could try enabling that in my next kernel. Not sure if useful, as I don't use VMs.

the vbox driver needs to be built against the kernel sources!

You can use your kernel before, but not this version

The source code has been attached. This version is not the only version that has been used before

@debianfan - which kernel was the one that worked?(6.0.6/5.10.153/other) ? I looked at my configs & couldn't see anything different, but if you tell me which, I'll investigate further.
