1-)What version of linux are you trying to boot?
Soas-v5 is not yet released.

If you are using one of the Soasv5  nightly -composes it may not be working.

You should use an older version of Soas  (Soas-v3 or V4)
 http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit#SoaS_v4_Mango_Lassi
 http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-3-mirabelle.iso

2a-) Why not just import a Prebuilt Virtual Machine into virtualbox?
  http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Emulator_image_files
 which lists a  number of Versions of Sugar.

2b:) OR
 Try using this CD to install to a VirtualBox Hard Disk :
  
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Trisquel_On_A_Sugar_Toast#trisquel-sugar_4.5.1_i686
  ( http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_4.5.1_i686.iso )
 This will be easier and much faster than running from a USB stick 
inside a VirtualBox appliance.
