Good luck with that. Since the Virtualbox guest additions are *not*
RPM enabled from their installation CD images, RPM is likely to
interfere with working, more recent installations of VBox drivers from
the "Guiest Additions" iso image, unless great caution is employed and
unless someone can convince them to be completely consistent in
installation tools, or to gracefully allow older and newer verson on
the same host.
