Correctly Installing Kali Linux Headers

You might have wanted to install Guest Addition modules in Kali Linux under VirtualBox but failed due to failure of Kali Linux Headers. To solve execture the commands below in your terminal:

1. Find your header type by executing the following command:
 uname -r  

You should get output, depending on your version as:
3.18.0-kali3-amd64

2. Next execute the command below:
 apt-cache search amd64 headers  

3. Once you got the header information use it as below to download the latest header for your Kali Linux:
 apt-get install linux-headers-3.18.0-kali3-amd64 -y  

Your header should now be updated
