reinstall virtualboxVM but cant find acrhive for it
There are a couple of places to get VirtualBox from, and the Oracle repository generally sees more updates … which is both a good and a bad thing.
If you haven’t already added the Oracle repository to your Ubuntu installation, this is how you do it:
- Open Terminal (if it’s not already open)
- Install some prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install software–properties–common
- Install the GPG keys for the repository:
wget –q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add –
- Add the Oracle repository:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic contrib"
- Update your cache:
sudo apt-get update
- Install VirtuslBox:
sudo apt-get install virtualbox–6.1
- Download the Expansion Pack:
wget https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.1.22/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.22.vbox-extpack
- Install the Expansion Pack:
sudo VBoxManage extpack install Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.22.vbox-extpack
And that’ll be that 👍🏻
