The init script wants to make sure that the device is owned by the
correct group, but unfortunately the group does not get created by the
postinst scripts.

You say that the "vboxusers" group does exist already, but I don't think that's 
the case. It would not say "invalid group" in this case probably.
What does "grep vboxusers /etc/group" display?

You can probably work around this, by creating the group manually:
# Create group:
sudo groupadd vboxusers
# Add user:
sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers [yourlogin]
# Then restart the module:
sudo invoke-rc.d vboxdrv start
