Hi all
Till this morning, I ran Windows 10 client on VirtualBox 6.1.24 on host Centos 8 stream kernel 4.18.0-315.el8 without problem (desktop).
I took the risk to do a "yum update" and as well as the kernel as the VirtualBox were updated:
kernel going from 4.18.0-315.el8 to 4.18.0-326.el8
VirtualBox going from 6.1.24 to 6.1.26
But yum complained already :
...

Complete!
Vbox did not start my Windows 10 when I tried.
I also tried to install VirtualBox 6.0 and 5.2 with the same kind of error in yum.
I rebooted then the computer and started a previous kernel 4.18.0-310.el8 and reinstalled Virtualbox 6.1.26 now without those errors and it runs smooth as before. (Kernel 315 had the same vbox errors.)
However, when I went back to kernel 4.18.0-326 and tried starting there VirtualBox 6.1.26 again, he complained with :
...
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows10.
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver is either not loaded or not set up correctly.
Please try setting it up again by executing
'/sbin/vboxconfig'
as root.
...
(I tried that "/sbin/vboxconfig" but that tells me nonsense about registering because of EFI secure boot, but I did not change anything in the BIOS.)
or there is some conflict between the last kernels and VirtualBox?
cheers
