virtualbox.org – The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available

This is for those who are trying to install virtualbox via debian apt-get tool and are having this error message on the screen:

Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://www.virtualbox.org etch Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 390EC3FF927CCC73
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

Your apt-get too is missing a public key. You can download it from here:

http://www.virtualbox.org/debian/innotek.asc

to install the key run this command:

apt-key add innotek.asc

This should fix your problem.
