I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and this worked easily for me.
I suppose that when using this, most people will want to access
their files on their non virtual box.  For this I installed sshfs
on the virtual box and then used

  sudo sshfs -o allow_other [email protected]:/home/arnold /mnt

Maybe sshfs should installed in the base system, and something
like this should be added to the instructions.  Or is there
a better way to do this?

We have a new, experimental installation approach for FEniCS that is based on 
Vagrant and virtual machines. It will hopefully make the installation of FEniCS 
simple and easy on a wide variety of platforms. Instructions on using Vagrant 
for FEniCS can be found at:

     https://bitbucket.org/garth-wells/fenics-virtual

So far, it’s been tested on Windows, OSX and various Linux distributions. If 
you try it out, any feedback is very welcome (both successes and failures). 
Specific technical issues can be registered at

Recent versions of Vagrant support Docker (Linux containers), so we may look to 
integrate the work of Lizao Li on Docker into an ‘official’ Vagrant-based VM 
and Docker installation system.

The Vagrant-based system for FEniCS builds on the work of Jack Hale.
