VirtualBox 4.1.18 is packaged for Debian 7 "Wheezy".
- Install the relevant linux-headers and virtualbox packages:
# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') virtualbox
Debian 7 "Wheezy" Backports
VirtualBox 4.3.14 is packaged for Debian 7 "Wheezy" via wheezy-backports.
The virtualbox-* packages were moved to contrib at VirtualBox 4.2, as a non-free compiler (Open Watcom) is required to build the BIOS.
- Add Debian Backports sources to /etc/apt/sources.list, also including the "contrib" component. For example:
# Backported packages for Debian 7 "Wheezy" deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib
- Update the list of available packages:
# apt-get update
- Install the relevant linux-headers package for your system, for example:
# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,')
- Install the wheezy-backports/virtualbox package:
# apt-get -t wheezy-backports install virtualbox
This will also install wheezy-backports/virtualbox-dkms and other recommended packages. DKMS will build the VirtualBox modules for your system.
VirtualBox can now be started. To not load the VirtualBox modules at system startup, edit /etc/default/virtualbox and set LOAD_VBOXDRV_MODULE to 0.
