Yes, VBoxManage is part of VirtualBox. But it would be on the host side and not guest so... basically your question makes no sense to anyone besides you.

Cuckoo seems to be trying to use Virtualbox in some way. It is expecting to find Virtualbox installed in the OS Cuckoo is running on. But Virtualbox is not installed in your guest, so Cuckoo can't run.

A quick perusal of the Cuckoo website seems to show that it wants to run on the host, not in a guest. So you would not be able to use Cuckoo the way you are using it, by installing it in the guest.

I believe that it goes only on the host. Best that you ask the Cuckoo forums for more information, we don't support that program here.
