Setup is: VirtualBox 6.0.12, Vagrant 2.2.6, Box debian/buster64, failing on
vagrant up during installation. If vanilla Debian 10 is running fine, maybe
it´s a problem in the vagrant image of debian/buster64. It was working some
days ago without a problem.

Without guest additions the vboxsf kernel module is not available.
