I tried through Ubuntu , it went well until I got :

" dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of virtualbox:
 virtualbox depends on libc6 (>= 2.4-1); however:
  Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.6.ds1-13. "
How can I install just that package ? Can I add repository from Ubuntu?
where can I find them ?
Thanks,
Rafi
