I'm not sure why. Reinstalling the guest additions does not solve this. I do not understand the problem, nor temporary solution, but here goes: -. Host: OS X 10.11, Guest: XUbuntu 14.10 1. Upgraded from 5.0.4 to 5.0.6 2. Executed VBoxLinuxAdditions.run on guest, appears to execute fine 3. Restarted host and guest -. Note: I have the something similar to this execute at startup: sudo mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=100 shared-vm /home/myuser/share 4. But now I see this error at startup, via the above command: /sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such device 5. Reinstalling the guest additions did not solve this 6. I followed a related suggestion that temporarily fixes it, by executing: modprobe -a vboxguest vboxsf vboxvide However, I now execute that each time I restart the guest in order for the mount to work. I can replicate this, let me know if you desire additional information.",defect,closed,shared folders,VirtualBox 5.0.6,fixed,shared,,Linux,Mac OS X
