OK, this evening I've re-rolled ISOs in all the different combinations
and tried them again. This is what I get on my Eee 701:

noxorgconf_novbox  : boots ok
noxorgconf_yesvbox : crashloop - shows the vbox error as the last line before 
the loop
xorgconf_novbox    : boots ok
xorgconf_yesvbox   : crashloop - shows the vbox error as the last line before 
the loop

So for my Eee 701 it's pretty clearly the virtualbox-ose-guest-x11
package that's causing the problem.

-- 
xorg.conf and virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 conflict

Status in Puredyne liveCD/DVD/USB/HD: Confirmed

Bug description:
Seems like the barebones /etc/X11/xorg.conf which I added, and 
virtualbox-ose-guest-x11, may conflict. Having them both causes a x11+gdm crash 
loop when booting a live-USB on my Eee 701, the last message showing being 
"VirtualBox Additions disabled, not in a Virtual Machine".

IIRC, it was the xorg.conf which caused problems in aymeric's virtualbox and 
led to the addition of virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 in the first place. So maybe 
it's just a rubbish xorg.conf :(
