A bug (https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19311) was opened with Oracle concerning this issue that has broken the AUR package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/virtualbox-bin-5/ If any of the devs have any idea what could have impacted Host/Guest I/O to the point it takes 10 minutes to boot a Archlinux guest to a simple text console, I would welcome your input here or on the bug report. Let me know if there is any reason to open an Arch bug -- doubtful since it is an AUR package that is impacted. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
