Ubuntu 18.10 (Guest VirtualBox) - black screen after install Guest Additions and reboot

  • Ubuntu 18.04 - host
  • VirtualBox 5.2.10
  • Ubuntu 18.10 - guest

After install Guest Additions and reboot i see flashing boot text and finally black screen.


I had the same issue, worked around it by disabling 3D acceleration in the VM settings.


I had the same issue, my solution was to increase the Display Memory to 128MB.
