After loading the vboxdrv manually, it moves forward but complains as
follows:
"An uknown group has write access to '/nix' and we therefore cannot trust
the directory content or that of any subdirectory
(VERR_SUPLIB_WRITE_NON_SYS_GROUP)"

Do I need to manually change the group of /nix directory to root?
