General Support / Re: reinstalling grub
Last post by VastOne - September 16, 2023, 03:27:50 AM
Quote from: hakerdefo on October 12, 2016, 11:32:38 AMI wrote an article on this ages ago. It could be of use to you,

How to recover deleted or corrupted Grub2 bootloader

Cheers!!!

This is the very reason I keep this alive.. I used hakerdefo's How To and RatMan's incredible wisdom just tonight when a new install of kernel 6.5.0-1 decided to shit all over grub and make my testing VBox unbootable.. A quick Google search for grub reinstall and VSIDO brought me exactly to this place for a very quick fix.. I am eternally grateful for all the help this has provided to the world for a very very long time

Been doing the fsarchive version for a year now as it was first posted here last September 4

It's been an interesting and fun ride that is helping keep this decaying old mans mind a bit sharper

If you were to have a baking contest,
will you have first prize be equivalent for the Youth and Adult categories?

If You were to have a fishing contest,

Last post by VastOne - September 02, 2023, 02:40:39 AM
Been without VirtualBox for the last couple of weeks until I found this fix and it works.

Simply edit

sudo medit /usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/vboxnetflt/linux/VBoxNetFlt-linux.c
and add

#include <net/gso.h>
below the line

#include <linux/inetdevice.h>
Then run

sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
and VirtualBox is back to good
