That depends on the mode you have selected for networking under virtualbox. If you are using "NAT", check that you have set up a static address of the form 10.0.2.x (DHCP would allocate 10.0.2.15, but I guess you have not yet built dhcpcd). Personally, I use 10.0.2.9 for a static address. Also the DNS should be set to 10.0.2.3, and gateway to 10.0.2.2. Also, virtualbox emulates various NIC, check that the modules for the NIC you have selected are included in the kernel. You can also look at /sys/class/net (in booted guest), to check that the kernel has found a NIC.
