Answer 1

Seems like the box didn't unbox properly. Delete the file and unbox again:

rm -rf *
truffle unbox webpack

Answer 2

You can install babel-register and try again. To install babel-register, run this command:

npm install babel-register --save-dev

This seems to be an issue with windows systems and the fix worked for me perfectly.
