Well a good idea would be to download the VMware version of BackTrack from here and than just import it into VBox as a hard drive.

Re: Error installing BT4 R2 on virtualbox
Thanks for the solution. It took me a while to figure out how to import the BT4R2 Vmware hardrive through VirtualBox.
To anyone who is confused, just create a new machine in Vbox go through the prompts and keep an eye out for the step below. Then click on the little folder and point to where the BT4R2 Vmware hardrive is.

When I trying to this step

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
