"Unable to boot" covers a lot of territory - we will not get very far without an accurate description of your problem.

For example, you mention an ISO however the log file shows no ISO attached to the VM, and that could certainly cause a boot failure if Android was not installed correctly first.

I should also note that (a) Android is not a supported guest OS. That doesn't mean it definitely won't work, only that it isn't guaranteed to work. Also (b) this forum is created to support users of VirtualBox, which is not what you are using. You are using a third party build from the open sources.

I have a previous topic in which I described successful setup of an Android 8.1 VM: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=92683&start=15.
