One reason for the hang can be that the video card detected on VirtualBox and on your real machine is not supported. In such cases the VGA driver is used with the fb device. You can check this with the device command. Currently the VGA driver has some bugs wich leave the JNode desktop with a blank screen. In spite of the the FBTest command is expected to work with the VGA driver. So one solution for the problem is to fix the bugs in the VGA driver. Though that will only give you a very rough user exeperience on the JNode desktop with 640x480 screen size and 16 colors. So the real solution is to implement direct support for your video cards.
