I check for a directory to exist to show that the VirtualBox module has been 
built. I don't have it automated but I do use a alias that maps to:

ls -ltr /lib/modules/*/extra;echo;ls -ltr /lib/modules;echo;echo -n "Currently 
booted to: ";uname -r;echo

If there is no "VirtualBox" directory in /lib/modules/6.16.7-200.fc42.x86_64 
(for example), then I know that the module failed to build and I then have to 
force it before rebooting.
