Changes between Initial Version and Version 1 of Ticket #15579

Ticket #15579 – Description

-              initial
+              v1
 Tracked down failures to install guest additions on CentOS 7. Symptom was constant syslogs:
+{{{
  dracut: Can't write to /boot/initramfs-: Directory /boot/initramfs- does not exist or is not accessible.
+}}}
 Upon rebooting, the system would be unbootable and required a rescue disk.
 problem is on line 1042 of VBoxLinuxAdditions.sh:
+{{{
    for i in /lib/modules/*; do
         update_module_dependencies "${i#/lib/modules}"
     done
+}}}
 running the following code illustrates the problem:
+{{{
    # for i in /lib/modules/*; do
         echo update_module_dependencies "${i#/lib/modules}"
 …
    update_module_dependencies /3.10.0-327.22.2.el7.x86_64
+}}}
 the correct code puts a trailing '/' after 'modules':
+{{{
     for i in /lib/modules/*; do
         update_module_dependencies "${i#/lib/modules/}"
     done
+}}}
 To workaround this bug, do the following:
 (mount GuestAdditions CD Image, cd to top level of CDROM).
+{{{
 # sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.sh
+}}}
 (errors - define the following shell function taken from the script)
+{{{
 # update_module_dependencies()
+{
 …
         update_module_dependencies "${i#/lib/modules/}"
   done
+}}}
 (the following files seem to be leftover and prevent my system from booting, delete them).
+{{{
 # rm -rf /var/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions
+}}}
