Download VirtualBox for Linux Hosts
VirtualBox 2.2.0 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.
Note: The VirtualBox 2.1.0 deb/rpm packages do not properly unregister from dkms before the package is removed / upgraded. Please have a look at our FAQ for further details.
