Kernel sources are located in /usr/src and the actual compiled kernels reside in /boot. It's a file named vmlinuz.

You need to re-install Centos and tell the installer to install Additional Development and Development Tools. You can also try yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" && yum -y groupinstall "Additional Development"

After install, su in and mount the Guest Additions image. cd /media/VBOX* and ./*.run

Should work.


Thank you for the replay
I did what you told me reinstall the CENTOS and I installed the
"yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" && yum -y groupinstall "
I do not understand when you say "mount the Guest Additions image cd/media/VBOX* and /*.run"
I hope you understand that I dont know anything about linux, so I would need a little bit more of explanation.
After tinstalling the groups and development tools. It stills show me the same error.
Can you please explain me step by step?

I have read the http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Virtualization/VirtualBox but some commands such as yum --enablerepo rpmforge install dkms says command no found.

I also upgrade the kernel because some people say that might be the problem, but still nothing.

I am running VBOX 4.1.8r on Windows 7

Thank you!
