How long did you wait? Please make sure to wait at least 5 minutes before you power off the VM.

That attached screen capture was 10minute wait. About every minute it just repeats the "Still waiting for root device" message.

We are currently busy with getting VirtualBox 5.0 out of the door. Fixing issues with Mac OS X guests is currently not our highest priority, sorry.

Just upgraded to 4.3.32 r103443 and this same issue exists.
Was going to try 5.0 but 5.0 is not supported with Lion and this hardware doesn't support anything past Lion.

Closing as obsolete, VirtualBox 6.1 has improved macOS guest support.
