I tried this method, VBox on 14.04, Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

As soon as I entered this line, sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup, I get this error on the terminal, sudo: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found.

How do I fix this.

Why would you "enter this line"? if you like to install virtualbox on 14.04, just install dkms and linux-header-generic and afterwards add the oracle repository and install from it, the kernel drivers will be installed during the process of installing virtualbox:

Install prerequesits:

sudo apt-get install dkms linux-headers-generic

Add repository key:

wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -

Add repository to sources list:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian trusty contrib" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/oracle.list'

Install virtualbox:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install virtualbox-5.0

you could also install virtualbox-4.3 or virtualbox-4.2 instead of 5.0 if you wish.

Have Fun.
