ps ax must show it.

$ ps ax | grep vboxgetty
  427  ?  S    0:00 /usr/sbin/vboxgetty -d /dev/ttyI0 

init tries to start it, but there is something wrong, so vboxgetty
exited and init restarted it. This happend all over, so init disabled 
the entry for 5 minutes.

Most likely something is wrong with vboxgetty.conf

You should have a setting like

port /dev/ttyI0
  modeminit             ATZ&B512&E<your MSN>
  user                  martinb
  group                 martinb
  spooldir              /var/spool/vbox/martinb

Maybe you could run /usr/sbin/vboxgetty -d /dev/ttI0 from the
shell. Perhaps it will give some hint about where the error is.

If you change vboxgetty.conf, then killall vboxgetty && init q to try
again.
