Without a VBox.log file there is nothing we can do.

I've the exact same issue, so I've attached my log. I'm using box-cutter/centos511 (​https://github.com/boxcutter/centos) as my VM in vagrant and it started failing during boot, even on the simplest Vagrantfile:

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'box-cutter/centos511'
end

I reported it over there and they suggested it's an issue with Virtualbox: ​https://github.com/boxcutter/centos/issues/55

Should be finally fixed with the most recent (>=112141) 5.1 test build for Mac OS X. This fix will be part of the next 5.1.x maintenance release.

Fix is part of VBox 5.1.12.
