VirtualBox won't run... maybe an issue header flags script tested with (Linux localhost 3.10.18 #1 SMP Wed Jun 10 23:15:24 PDT 2015 x86_64 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2830 @ 2.16GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux)...

@divx118 and @dnschneid etc.

When I ran the setup-headers command, I noticed some strange looking things like apt-get: not found messages and others... (see below). On top of that, I'm having trouble installing and running virtualbox, which is giving me the message that I am missing kernel headers. My kernel version is 3.10.8 (Linux localhost 3.10.18 #1 SMP Wed Jun 10 23:15:24 PDT 2015 x86_64 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2830 @ 2.16GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux)

All done now, you can install virtualbox. Note that you need to log out of your chroot
and start it again to load the modules needed for virtualbox.

You need to run sudo sh setup-headers.sh in a shell in the chroot, not in chromeos.

Ahh, yes! Thanks!
