I am currently trying to virtualize a backend and I want to install the virtualbox guest additions. I have added the arch repos but pacman is telling me that it can not resolve some dependcies such as linux 3.11. Can someone help out or share their experiences in this area. Thank you in advance.

I've done this many times, including just now on R8. I used pacman to install make, gcc & the kernal headers and then I was good to go. I know it's working as I'm using shared folders. If you need more detailed steps let me know.

I believe I did something like the following


Code:
su -
pacman -S make
pacman -S gcc
pacman -S kernel26-headers
cd /media/cdrom
sudo sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
