Re: system failing to load virtualbox modules

You did not menthon what copy of VirtualBox you used, and that makes a
difference.
I have been running the copy from rpmfusion for some time, and
experienced the same trouble you had. It often breaks after
updates/upgrades, forcing me to use old kernel copies.

In the end I decided to fall back to the upstream version provided by
Oracle. Also that one needs to be reinstalled now and then, but at least
it allows me to stay up-to-date to the latest kernel versions, with
selinux in enforcing mode.
