Hello all,

I compiled my own custom kernel on a virtual machine and then I need to 
provide at my system the additions in order to have a compelete system.

I tried to follow the 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VirtualBox#Install_the_Guest_Additions

but I catch an error on 

# modprobe -a vboxguest vboxsf vboxvideo

FATAL: module vboxdrv not found

And under /lib/modules/mykernel/ or /lib/modules/extra-mykernel I can't find the modules, do I compile by hands the module, any suggestions ?

Hope this is the right place where ask, thanks in advance,

Pietro
