Trying to start up Kali and the error "Failed to start Hostname Service" comes up.

I've got Kali as a VM and was working fine until I restarted it. When it's booting it shows "intel_rapl: no valid rapl domains found in package 0" and Failed to start Hostname Service.

I'm running Virtualbox 5.1.6 r110634 (Qt5.5.1)

How can I fix this?

Do you see the line just below the "[FAILED] Failed to start Hostname Service."?

I see it, but don't know how to get to it to view it.

Edit: I should clarify that I can't get it to startup. It gets stuck at this point.
