It installed, I re-loaded the kernel modules, but there is something wrong.

VM's won't start because it seems to think the kernel is running modules 4.1, not 4.2

In desperation, I even tried rebooting.

I ended up masking 4.2.0 (it's already ~amd64)

maybe you have forgotten to emerge app-emulation/virtualbox-modules?
i use virtualbox-bin and the corresponding modules always have to emerged separately. also you mgiht have to check the kernel-version and the /usr/src/linux-symlink
GOOD LUCK!

Thanks, I notice the 4.2.0-r1, quick work.

When I get back to the affected computer, I will have to change my mask, as I masked virtualbox, not virtualbox-modules.

:)
