Virtualbox on OS6 NAS
Hi all, I know that it's possible to install VirtualBox on legacy x86 NAS. What about OS6? Does anyone knows how to install VirtualBox on OS6? Thanks.

The update 6.2.3 broke VirtualBox due to the kernel upgrade.
So far I've experienced a couple of issues.
1. This file is corrupts (missing the end) from the Netgear download site -->ReadyNASOS_V6.2.3_WW_src.zip
2. When trying to install the kernel it fails
I changed the permissions on scripts/basic/fixdep
then received
I decided to rollback to 6.2.2 and now
So I seem to be left in no mans land, I haven't really had enough time to look into it in detail yet but this is . Anyone have some ideas?
