[Bug 1565985] Re: vagrant vb ubuntu/xenial64 cannot mount synced folders

[Martin Schwaighofer]

Hello,

I just tried to provision a box with ubuntu/xenial64 (virtualbox,
20160725.0.0) and ubuntu/yakkety64 (virtualbox, 20160723.0.0) from the
images as https://atlas.hashicorp.com/ubuntu/boxes/.

I just wanted to point out that the problems are still present there,
and I think this is where most users pull their images automatically
when using vagrant.

Will this fix land there as well? I'm not sure who updates those
releases, please forgive my ignorance.

Bug description:
  I am unable to fully provision  a xenial instance using box
      ubuntu/xenial64               (virtualbox, 20160403.0.0)
  because the synced folders are never mounted.

  VAGRANT_LOG=DEBUG vagrant init --debug indicates that there was an error mounting the filesystem
      mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxsf'

  I am using
      VirtualBox 5.0.16 r105871
      vagrant 1.8.1

  While init/provision fails, the instance is brought up. I can get into
  it and see it runs. It doesn't appear that Virtualbox Guest Additions
  is installed. I can see that my installation of VB does have
  VBoxGuestAdditions.iso and is readable.
