I intend to run: ln -sf vboxvfs.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27.42-0.1-trace/updates/vboxvfs.co ln -sf vboxadd.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27.42-0.1-trace/updates/vboxadd.ko from the directory where the incorrect symlinks are located.
Almost. 1) The arguments must be the other way round; first the real files, then the place where the symlinks shall be created. 2) There's a typo in the first command, there ".co" must be ".ko".
The exact commands are, as root:
cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/weak-updates/updates ln -sf /lib/modules/2.6.27.42-0.1-trace/updates/vbox*.ko . depmod -a
# cd /lib/modules/2.6.27.45-0.1-default/weak-updates
This is not the command cited above; it's the wrong directory. The symlinks are in a subdirectory updates. You have now created symlinks in /lib/modules/2.6.27.45-0.1-default/weak-updates, remove them before issuing my commands again.
