You need to create a folder as root from terminal. But your problem might not even be the same problem I had. Are you using a Multi core processor in your computer? and do you have plenty of RAM so the Virtual machine will have enough to run?

Tron, Maybe you should try my directions too. You obviously didn't have dkms installed.

I should also mention that should you get virtualbox working, you will also need to download the extension package from Oracle and install that as well.

Actually it will work, but the person using it will just not be able to use all features that can be achieved with Virtual box, such as usb support, shared folders ect. Obviously the op will want to take your advice though since they will want usb support.

As Tron said, you will need root privileges to access this folder. Do you know how to do this?
You haven't been clear of how new you are to Linux. I'm getting the impression, pretty new?
This is important because it helps us know of how detailed in our instructions we need to be to help you. It's the difference between this.
