The log apruptly ends where the BIOS in the VM would boot from CD. So 
apparently there's an uncaught error which shows up in your environment.

Could you please provide us a core dump (which I assume will be created) 
by following http://virtualbox.org/wiki/Core_dump

 From the log file you provided I can already spot one odd thing - 
you've configured the guest to use /dev/cdrom, which according to your 
information above doesn't exist. Of course that should just prevent you 
from booting the VM from CD, and not crash VBox.

That cannot possibly work. You can't mix and match i386/amd64 
package/kernel module.
