Have been the maintainer of the G4L project going back 
to 2004, and have been using Virtualbox to check the iso 
images after creating new versions for both regular and 
efi setups. So, it is something that works just fine. 
Perhaps will take a look at those options. 

Thanks for reply.

Virtualbox is a 3rd-party package (in this case, Oracle), so you would 
need to wait for an update released by them for the newer kernel. This 
being a kmod, there is probably nothing that the rpm packager (in this 
case its rpmfusion) can do until Oracle releases a kernel-matching version.


Just out of curiosity, why are you using virtualbox instead of a kvm 
solution frontended by boxes or virtmanager?

Upgraded from 35 to 36, and noticed that VirtualBox wasn't working with 6.0.15, but would with 6.0.14?

Appears there is 
kmod-VirtualBox-6.0.14-200.fc36.x86_64-7.0.4-1.fc36.x86_64
but not a version for 6.0.15 yet? 
Gave message the vboxdrv wasn't loaded, but ran the 
commands it said, but guess without the package, it 
couldn't build the module.

But was able to boot with 6.0.14, and do the testing I 
needed. Took a while to figure out the issue, so have to 
check for updates. 

Just thought I'd mention it. Had no issues with Fedora 
35, so at first thought it might be a Fedora 36 issue.
