+I have upgraded VirtualBox from 3.x series to 4.x, and my VM lost
+mounted host directories.
+
+ NeuroDebian VMs prior 6.0.3 were shipped with guest additions from
+ 3.x series of VirtualBox and some initial versions of VirtualBox in
+ 4.x series have failed to mount host directories properly.
+ VirtualBox 4.0.8 seems to work fine with guest additions from 3.x
+ series. If you nevertheless want to upgrade guest additions within
+ NeuroDebian VM, please rebuild the version available from the
+ backports::
+
+ sudo apt-get install -y linux-headers-2.6-amd64 # or -686 for 32bit
+ sudo apt-get install -y -t squeeze-backports virtualbox-ose-guest-kdms
+
+ and reboot VM.
