在 Ubuntu 中，VirtualBox 安装apt install virtualbox仅提供旧版本 v5.2.18。
user@linux:~$ apt show virtualbox
Package: virtualbox
Version: 5.2.18-dfsg-2~ubuntu18.04.5
Priority: optional
Section: multiverse/misc
Origin: Ubuntu
最初，我使用这个版本有一段时间了。
然后，我决定下载并安装最新版本（v6.0.8）这里。
user@linux:~$ sha256sum virtualbox-6.0_6.0.8-130520~Ubuntu~bionic_amd64.deb
17f1a24848dcf8ec1025790d35281f7f38b2c98740ddbccac6259a0f4c1786f7 virtualbox-6.0_6.0.8-130520~Ubuntu~bionic_amd64.deb
user@linux:~$
最初，我无法安装最新版本。
user@linux:~$ sudo dpkg -i virtualbox-6.0_6.0.8-130520~Ubuntu~bionic_amd64.deb
[sudo] password for user:

不幸的是，我以前的图像都无法在新的 VirtualBox 上使用。
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Ubuntu-18.04-Server.
The virtual machine 'Ubuntu-18.04-Server' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).

发生了什么事以及如何解决这个问题？
答案1
我在安装 virtualbox 6 时遇到了同样的问题，因为 virtualbox 5 已经安装好了。在安装 virtualbox-6.0 之前，我尝试过
sudo apt remove virtualbox
进而
sudo apt install virtualbox-6.0
但尝试“apt upgrade”时出现以下问题：
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualbox-6.0 : Conflicts: virtualbox
Conflicts: virtualbox-qt but 5.2.18-dfsg-2~ubuntu18.04.5 is to be installed
所以我意识到有些包没有被正确删除。
sudo apt autoremove --purge virtualbox*
sudo apt install virtualbox-6.0
最终对我有用。
答案2
“Virtualbox 内核模块与此版本的 virtualbox 不匹配”
我认为解释得很好。
你安装的 virtualbox 内核模块仍然是 5.xx 版本。但是你安装的 virtualbox 版本是 6.xx 有一个不匹配。
卸载模块
您可以手动卸下模块。
sudo modprobe -r vboxpci
sudo modprobe -r vboxnetadp
sduo mdoprobe -r vboxnetflt
[...]
sudo modprobe -r vboxdrv
注意：不要介意 modprobe 报告模块未找到
然后重新启动 virtualbox。
重启
... 或者 （不是并且）您只需重新启动即可。
