The screenshot shows a crash in the r8169 driver, and that its code has
been corrupted.

Please check:
- Are the package contents correct on disk?
  Run 'debsums -c linux-image-3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64'; it should print
  nothing at all if they are.
- If so, is this reproducible?
- If so, it is reproducible without VirtualBox installed?
