Hello Evgueni,

The HWE kernel in Focal Fossa 20.04 has recently been updated from 5.8 to 5.11. Reading the logs attached, it seems your system is trying to install the new 5.11 kernel packages and is failing at this stage:

Processing triggers for linux-image-5.11.0-25-generic (5.11.0-25.27~20.04.1) ...
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.11.0-25-generic
run-parts: failed to stat component /etc/kernel/postinst.d/vboxadd: No such file or directory

The file '/etc/kernel/postinst.d/vboxadd' was likely supposed to be installed by Virtualbox Guest Additions but it's either empty or not present. You mentioned that you are trying to install the newest Virtualbox Guest Additions. Was a previous version already installed before? If yes, could you try removing it and installing again?
