=== Update VirtualBox to Latest Version ===
To update VirtualBox to the latest version, you must stop the service:
* Become privileged ('''root''' user):
{{Code|
su -
service vboxwebsrv stop
}}
* Depending on the Install Option you used originally will determine how you update.
'''Option 1 (RPM):''' Download RPM from [http://www.virtualbox.org VirtualBox.org]
{{Code|
yum localinstall RPM-Name
}}
'''Option 2 (Repo):'''
{{Code|
yum update
}}
* Restart service:
{{Code|
service vboxwebsrv start
}}
=== [http://www.amahi.org/apps/phpvirtualbox phpVirtualBox] (Web-Based Access) ===
* Applies to 32-bit machines ONLY.
* Having issues with install, check to see if you have the PAE kernel:
{{Code|
uname -r
}}
* If it returns something like ''2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE'', do the following:
{{Code|
yum install -y kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
VirtualBox
}}
* VirtualBox should now work.
