Problems with compiling/installing from sources

Hi,
while trying to install VirtualBox (using viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2133&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=virtualbox as a guide) the compilation of the kernel module dies with the error

Code:

/bin/sh: line 1: install: command not found

Seems like a command named 'install' is not installed on my machine (plain Linpus Lite).
Any hints on what packages might be missing?

Thanks in advance,
Simon

 

I'm not sure which instructions you're using.

In general, the following should be sufficient
sudo yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-devel

That will pull in other necessary things as well, which is fine.
Fedora and Linpus don't include compiling tools by default.

As for VirtualBox, you might be better off using the rpm for Fedora 8. (Untested on Linpus though, so I might be steering you wrong.)
