Hello
I've got a guest archlinux on virtualbox and while booting i get
a start job is running for Load Kernel Modules xxsecs/ 4 mins
and fails. Then i login and get
systemd-modules blocked for more than 120 seconds - tainted G 0 4.7.2-1 ARCH #1
I followed this but no luck..
Any ideas?
Thanks mates

What was the output of "systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service"
What OS is your host running and which Virtualbox version ?
please post full dmesg output ?

You could use a pastebin client , but that requires a network connection.
What is the output of pacman -Qs virtualbox ?

Ok here's dmesg and
pacman -Qs virtualbox
local/virtualbox-guest-dkms 5.1.4-1
VirtualBox Guest kernel modules sources
local/virtualbox-guest-utils 5.1.4-1
VirtualBox Guest userspace utilities

Dmesg does show problems with vboxguest & vboxsf modules.
You are using dkms to keep the vboxguest modules uptodate, and kernel 4.7.2 is built with gcc 6.1 .
Which version of gcc is installed ?
if it is gcc 6.2, try running pacman -Syu to update to 4.7.4 kernel whichis built with gcc 6.2 .

Ok i updated to the newest kernel since i was on gcc 6.2 but during updating i got this error:
Error! there are no vboxguest modules located in dkms tree
And this:

Along with the original messages..

I'd suggest replacing vbox dkms with virtualbox-guest-modules-arch instead, but virtualbox on AL was just updated to 5.1.6 .
Virtualbox Host and Guest need to use the same version, so your windows version needs to be updated also.

Updated host virtualbox and replaced dkms with modules-arch but still the modules fail to load:

Those are in virtualbox-modules-arch and should only be needed for an AL host.
please verify you did install virtualbox-guest-modules-arch .

I'm terribly sorry! I wanted to thank LW and forgot to elaborate!
I uninstalled dkms modules and installed virtualbox-guest-modules-arch and virtualbox-guest-utils that did the trick..
Thanks again.
