Another new kernel update was release for the Jolicloud Pre-Beta, bringing the new kernel to 2.6.32-6-jolicloud

Users of Jolicloud in a VirtualBox environment need to update the kernel headers.

If you have used our Jolicloud in VirtualBox instructions before on how to enable Guest Additions, follow these instructions to bring guest additions back up to the newest kernel.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install make linux-headers-$(uname -r)


Each line is a separate command, so you’ll have to hit enter after each one. Once everything is done downloading and compiling restart the virtual machine and when it starts back up everything should be working.

Here’s a great post on how to use Jolicloud in VirtualBox (found on the Jolicloud Get Satisfaction page).

I noticed nobody’s brought up the issue of VirtualBox Guest Additions so I thought I would write a short how-to in case anyone was wondering how to get it working. Jolicloud doesn’t come with everything you need to build the extra kernel extensions, so you’ll need to install a couple of things. First you need to mount the Guest Additions ISO (click the Devices menu, the Install Guest Additions). Once you have it mounted open up a new Terminal window and type this:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install make linux-headers-$(uname -r)
cd /media/cdrom0
sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run

Each line is a separate command, so you’ll have to hit enter after each one. Once everything is done downloading and compiling restart the virtual machine and when it starts back up everything should be working.
