I used to build everything into kernel as well but the kernels are getting bigger and bigger. To a point that on my old installation (the box is abut 7-years old) my /boot partition can only accommodate one kernel :-/ So I tried build it as module. modules="vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp vboxpci it87" did not make any difference. -- Thelma
