Description
After having installed build-essential on a fresh installed Guest running Ubuntu 17.10 Server (installed from ubuntu-17.10.1-server-amd64.iso) I tried to install the Guest Additions but failed with an Input/output error.
peter@ubuntu-s:~$ sudo /mnt/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run sudo: unable to execute /mnt/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run: Input/output error
Next I tried to install the guest additions for 5.2.7. While this worked so far it produced a "modprobe vboxsf failed" message.
After a reboot and a second try to install VirtualBox 5.2.7 Guest Additions for Linux the installation finished without an error.
For further details see attached console-log-1.txt.

comment:1 by , 6 years ago
Replaced the attached log of my console sessions (console-log-1.txt) with a version where I clearly marked the reboot of the guest system.
