Not much there in the log.
The first time it started, something went really bad with respect to the host
system x-windows/gnome-shell display (froze) but I could ctrl-alt-F2, login
and then reboot. The second time I booted up the ARM virtual , that did not
happen but have a wile, I killed it since it did not seem to be going anywhere.
I think the problem is you are using the 'lpae' kernel. That only works with
vexpress-a15 in my experience, and would need to be coupled with the +lpae
initrd variant as well. Try the non-lpae kernel and see if that fixes things.
