Perfect tutorial !

Anyhow I have to remind you that guest-additions is a kernel module, which means it won't take effect any more after you updated your kernel. You will need to recompile it.

4. start vm directly

vboxmanage startvm 

5. run background

vboxheadless -s 

6. setup host-only network
