我使用 Virtualbox 4.1 安装了一次 Linux Mint 11 Katya，一切运行良好。然后我重装了系统，也安装了很多软件（包括Wine）。但是，当我按照相同的步骤安装 Virtualbox 时，它在启动时失败，并出现以下两个错误对话框：
无法打开虚拟机 w7 的会话。
虚拟机“w7”在启动过程中意外终止，退出代码为 1。详细信息：
结果代码：
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
成分：

还有另一个错误窗口：
VirtualBox - Error In suplibOsInit
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.解决该错误的所有步骤均无效。以 root身份运行/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup给我：
* Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
* Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
* Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS [ OK ]
* Starting VirtualBox kernel modules
* modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why另外，在添加 Virtualbox 存储库后，我在更新管理器上看到 Virtualbox 的所有下载都失败了。
有任何想法吗？我真的真的不想重新安装系统...vboxusers在重试之前，我还清除并手动删除了 Virtualbox 安装（组除外）。
重新安装时的消息：
addgroup: The group `vboxusers' already exists as a system group. Exiting.

立即查看 dmesg 输出，您会发现硬盘驱动器在读取操作期间出现故障。坏坏！可能建议先解决这个问题，否则您只是在练习下一次（重新）安装。
