Kernel headers

Running the module complier script for VirtualBox guest extensions, now stuck - where are the linux headers needed for compiling modules? A search using gslapt defaults shows no candidates that I can see.

(I think that's what is happening as there is no info displayed while this takes place, and that could be minutes) Why not write this file earlier in the shutdown process so information could be di...
