I do minimal installations, and the only required packages to
build VirtualBox are gcc and kernel-devel.
Did you know you can add a yum repo for VirtualBox? Save this
file in /etc/yum.repos:
wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/rhel/virtualbox.repo
Then import the key for the repo:
wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc
rpm --import oracle_vbox.asc && rm -f oracle_vbox.asc
c
