I had the same issue installing on Windows 10. I followed the instructions in this video:
https://tr-my.net/watchvideo/how-to-install-kali-linux-on-virtualbox-exdj6PNPuxA.html
...and it seems to work now. Note, I still see those messages ("Failed to send host log message") but it boots all the way into Kali now and I do not have further issues.
Essentially what it boiled down to was a lack of resources. I allocated 2 CPU's, 2 gig of memory, and 16 gig on the virtual HD for it to work.
Also make sure you have virtualization enabled in BIOS.
