Actually, it turns out that the problem is not installing the additions, it just happens on every boot after the first one.

I am trying to use a Virtual PC image with VirtualBox, and it works on the first boot, but on the first reboot the kernel gets damaged in this way.

Was this a VHD image with the original report as well?

Resolution: fixed

There were several VHD fixes in later VBox releases. Please reopen if still relevant with VBox 3.1.8 / 3.2.4.
