Maciek,

Thanks!

I had to run things as root, but other than that things worked fine.

Now, if I may ask another question.....

I've designated three Mac folders as "shared" but I can't find them on the guest machine. The entire purpose of installing VirtualBox was to allow me to use some Linux programs on data held in my Mac directories. Can you tell me where to look? I want to be able to "cd" to them with a terminal.

I'm strongly recommend to read UserManual.pdf  4.6 Folder sharing.
Shared Folders is feature I never managed to make it work (some versions ago it failed and I gave up) . I use samba , nfs to share files with guests .
But according UserManual It could be as simple as

# mount -t vboxsf [-o OPTIONS] sharename mountpoint
