Installation

This is for Fedora 20.

Download (or use the yum repo file) : https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

Install requirements to rebuild the kernel modules :

yum install kernel kernel-devel gcc

Install VirtualBox :

yum install ./VirtualBox-4.3-4.3.18_96516_fedora18-1.x86_64.rpm

Rebuild the kernel modules if they haven't been built (reboot with the kernel matching the kernel-devel package) :

service vboxdrv setup

Add unprivileged user to the vboxusers group (maybe not needed when using X) :

usermod -a -G vboxusers dude

Also see Vagrant.
