I went back to the point before upgrading to 2.6.31.13

I installed your repository
I did
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoremove

I checked if the VirtualBox drive is in /etc/fstab
groan I now call it VBd

Then I booted:
Same hang.

How can I go shure, that the new update to 2.6.31-13 is made before your ~beta5 is installed?

BTW I removed the VBd from /etc/fstab and it was o.k.
which is IMHO a slightly different scenario, because when upgrading the VirtualBoxGuestadditions are not active any more.
So I booted again with Guestadditions installed (and no VBd) -> o.k.

I activated the VBd and booted -> let me say it this way: I stared that long on the ubuntu logo that I can see it on this page as dark violett halo.
The good news for you: I can't bother you with screenshots because they are all black. ;-)

So I tried it with 2.6.31-12 generic (and your mountall, I did NOT go back this time) -> same freeze.

And by typing this essay of #@!* bugs it becomes clear to me: please give me ~beta6 because without ~beta5 nothing goes, with ~beta5 nothing goes either.
