Adding myself changes nothing. Looks a bit weird. The install script only needs and creates a vboxusers group so that it can install the files with the correct ownership. But it checks first if the group exists and that check seems to fail for an unknown reason. Could you please send back the output of the following 3 commands? (as root) pw group show vboxusers; echo $? pw groupadd vboxusers -g 920 grep vbox /etc/group > Should I install the current version from ports first, before trying to > ugprade to this snapshot? I think that should not change anything because the install script did not change for a long time. My guess at the moment is that something in your /etc/group is inconsistent or wrong so that the tools get confused. -- Bernhard Fröhlich http://www.bluelife.at/
