Almost the same here. I first upgraded guest from 11.10 to 12.04. That was fine. When I upgraded the host as well, the guest crashes before I can really see anything in the console (it does become black for a short moment, bu then it's gone).
Comparing this particular guest with my other VMs showed "vmvga" to be the cause. After setting the video to cirrus, the guest starts again.
