I'm not an arch user. Having said that, it should still be possible
for you to bring up the boot loader screen, and boot from your
previous kernel. Failing that, I understand the arch installation iso
is fairly feature rich. If yes, you should be able to use that as a
rescue disk, mount your guest's partition(s), and downgrade the kernel
that way. In the future, if you're going to make big changes to your
guest like a new kernel, take a snapshot. If things go bye-bye, you
restore the snapshot, and you're back to where you started. One of the
beauties of VirtualBox.
