Running VirtualBox VM host on ReadyNAS Pro

I cleaned up some space on /.


NASHOG:/usr/bin# df -k

NASHOG:/usr/bin# cd /c/addons-config/VirtualBox/backup/

After that I attempted the install and got the following error.


NASHOG:/c/addons-config/VirtualBox/backup# dpkg --install webmin_1.590_all.deb
(Reading database ... 24861 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking webmin (from webmin_1.590_all.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of webmin:

webmin depends on libio-pty-perl; however:

So I ran the following to clear that up and get webmin installed.


NASHOG:/c/addons-config/VirtualBox/backup# sudo apt-get install libnet-ssleay-perl libauthen-pam-perl libio-pty-perl apt-show-versions

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
apt-show-versions: Depends: libapt-pkg-perl but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
