I was able to use various features of vagrant to provision a virtualbox but 
I was unable to add Vbox GuestAdditions. It fails with the following error. 

what I did?

I downloaded plugins necessary for guestaddition --vagrant plugin install 
vagrant-vbguest

Based on what I read, we do not need to put anything on vagrantfile for 
installing Vbox GuestAdditions it does automatically. So I used same 
vagrantfile. 

Fom the log I can see, it tries to install Vbox GuestAdditions but it 
failed 



Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually because
the "vboxsf" file system is not available. Please verify that
the guest additions are properly installed in the guest and
[i][b]can work properly. The command attempted was:

mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`getent group vagrant | cut -d: 
-f3`
vagrant /vagrant
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant` vagrant /vagrant

The error output from the last command was:

/sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such device



I also found some suggestion on the net e.g
sudo ln -s /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-4.3.10/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions 
/usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions

but this did not fix my issue. Appreciate any suggestion.
