    The username is root and the password is the one you setup during the installation.

    I installed Kali on vbox as well and had the same issue. I didn't remember setting up a username, but then I saw this post and entered in root as the username with the password I setup during installation and it worked.

    Nice one bauerguy88 m8ey,
    i had same trouble as yourself and prat732, i only found you had to use root as the login when i found your post.
    doesn't say anything about creating a username during install, just the password creation.
