Checklists and Cheatsheets
Here are some of the checklists and references that are always handy-
Secure boot and VirtualBox Component Signing
VirtualBox requires the components to be signed and key to be enrolled with to work with Secureboot. To do so, first generate the keys using the command-
openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout MOK.priv -outform DER -out MOK.der -nodes -days 36500 -subj "/CN=Descriptive name/"
Above command will generate two files MOK.priv and MOK.der. To sign
VirtualBox components execute the script
sign-vboxmods.sh
in the same folder where the MOK.* files have been generated. Once you have
signed the components, you need to enroll the key (only once) as shown below-
sudo mokutil --import MOK.der
Now, reboot the machine, enrol the key from the manager screen and probe the component as shown below-
sudo modprobe vboxdrv
Kernel Upgrades and DKMS Key Issues
If you update your kernel, you need to make sure that all your DKMS modules are installed.
Run build-dkms-modules.sh to fix one of these issues-
% dkms status
