Hi Federico,
Thanks and congrats on the new release!
I gave it a try. Installation seemed to go fine, but then on booting
it up I get past the GRUB screen and then it goes to a black
unresponsive screen at "loading initial ramdisk..." Haven't had a
chance to troubleshoot it further. I'm attaching the log file in case
anyone wants to take a look.
(I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 and Virtual Box version 5.0.24_Ubuntu r108355)
(I'm using LilyDev on Ubuntu because I'm new to GNU/Linux and already
familiar with LilyDev.)
Cheers,

I also tried to install LilyDev 5.0 last week - I use Ubuntu 16.0.4 with
the latest 64 bit vBox 5.1.x test build (112223 w Ext pack 112433).
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Testbuilds
(I have been using it for the last week or so without any problems for
my 'work' VM it's very stable and fixed some annoying clipboard issues I
was having with the one in the repos).
If you want to give it a go in case it is the repo version that is at
fault - which is a bit behind the current stable release even.
1. Uninstall the vBox package from the Software Repo (I assume you
apt-get installed it? So apt-get remove it).
2. Download the 'Linux 64 bit' version of the 5.1.x build. with the
Extension Pack.
3. You will need to chmod +x the Installer.
4. Then run the exe as root (sudo ./VirtualBox_5...) and it will install
all the bits and bobs for you.
5. Start the Virtual Box UI and then apply the extension pack via the
'files/preferences -> Extensions' part of the UI.
I don't use any special settings other than 3 or 4 CPUs, disable sound
and enable PAE for my Hardware.
I have not had the same problems as your self and it boots very quick.
I know that doesn't help you diagnose your issue, but as a second point
of reference, albeit with a newer version of Virtual Box it seems to
work for me.
