Comment (by Don Quixote):

 it seems to be necessary to select both fail-safe video mode in the Haiku
 boot menu, as well as to select the fail-safe video options.  I succeeded
 with 32-bit 1024x768.

 If I used the default fail-safe video I always got the black screen at end
 of boot.

 IO APIC enabled or disabled in the VirtualBox guest configuration does not
 seem to matter.
