Then you did something wrong. How did you compile the modules?
I strongly suggest you to do

  /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

The sequence

  make && make install

is not sufficient as there are inter-module dependencies which are
handled by the init script by copying the Module.symvers file from
the vboxdrv directory to the vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp directory
before these modules are compiled.

Kind regards,

Frank
