Here is the details:
I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 in VirtualBox (host is OSx). After rebooting is stops booting. Flashing couple of times and stoped.
Release info:
Vbox Version: 5.2.8 r121009 (Qt5.6.3)
root@tigran-VirtualBox:~# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch)
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
root@tigran-VirtualBox:~# uname -a
Linux tigran-VirtualBox 4.15.0-13-generic #14-Ubuntu SMP Sat Mar 17 13:44:27 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Update: If I remove the guest additions from the recovery mode it is again boots successfully.
So my goal is to have successfully installed/working guest additions.
My suspect is that VBox 5.2.8 is not ready for the new kernel version 4.15, but I'm not competent in that.
Any suggestions?

Just check the release dates, see if the math fits. I bet they won't.Tigran wrote:My suspect is that VBox 5.2.8 is not ready for the new kernel version 4.15, but I'm not competent in that.
If you want to use the latest version for your host/guests, you should also consider doing the same for VirtualBox. You should try the latest test builds.Tigran wrote:Any suggestions?

External symptoms look very similar to

Workaround was to switch off 3D acceleration.

I've turned off the 3D acceleration and it booted successfully. Seems guest additions also working correctly. At least shared clipboard.
I'm experiencing some graphic weaknesses, but probably is due to 3D acceleration off.
Thanks you for suggestion!

I guess, it's https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/17623
Please check /var/log/syslog and check for undefined symbol 'glFramebufferTexture2D' (grep gnome-shell /var/log/syslog).
You should also disbale Wayland in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf by uncommenting "WaylandEnable = False".

This also impacts me. I'm trying the latest test build 5.2.11r122125 and 3D acceleration won't work (flickering screen while trying to start display manager a few times, eventually gives up on boot).
The syslog is attached, but the problem is the glFramebufferTexture2D as hypothesized:
I assume this is what the OP is experiencing.

The problem is being looked at actively as we speak. Some patches have shown up, but nothing solid yet. So,Zeppe wrote:the problem is the glFramebufferTexture2D as hypothesized
