Hello Phil, I will get back to you to look at this properly on Monday, but I already see that it seems to be failing to load the user space driver /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so for some reason. (The "invalid argument" message in the boot log trying to load the vboxvideo kernel module is expected, as we only support kernels 3.11 and later with the kernel module).
