Kernel build Virtualbox error
I have Mint 14 installed with kernel 3.5.0 on a Toshiba NB205-N210 netbook.
It frequently hangs. Input from mouse or keyboard gets things moving again.
I've been using gentoo on the machine for years with no problems, so I tried using its .config to build a new kernel.
I downloaded 3.8.9 from a kernel mirror, copied in .config, and 'make oldconfig' taking the default option in all cases.
The build worked, but the install failed with a problem with virtualbox?
Code:
/ # cd /usr/src/linux-3.8.9
linux-3.8.9 # make install
sh /usr/src/linux-3.8.9/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 3.8.9-01 arch/x86/boot/bzImage \
System.map "/boot"

As far as I know I do not have anything related to virtual enabled.
Thoughts?
