Why not just try {{{modprobe}}} first? Here's how I modified that section of {{{vboxdrv}}}. But I'm sure you could do a whole lot better: {{{ if ! running vboxdrv; then if ! modprobe vboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1; then # modprobe failed. Find out why: if ! find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name ""vboxdrv\.*"" 2>/dev/null|grep -q vboxdrv; then failure ""No suitable module for running kernel found"" fi failure ""modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why"" fi sleep .2 fi }}} " defect closed host support VirtualBox 2.2.2 fixed boot, vboxdrv, init, slow, find, grep other Linux
