Installing a Mac OS X 10.8 virtual machine under Windows 8.1

Reprinted from http://blog.csdn.net/jordanxinwang/article/details/43637799 1, ready

Host operating system: Windows 8.1 64-bit. In particular, CPU support for hardware virtualization is required. If Hyper-V is installed on Windows 8.1, it is definitely supported.

Required Software:
1) VMware Player 7.0

Unlocker mainly consists of two parts: extended VMware to support new virtual machines, Mac OS X operating system, Vmvare tools for Mac OS X.
3) 7-zip

DMG for extracting the DMG installation package from Mac OS x out of the real installer.
4) dmg2img

Used to convert the DMG format to ISO format.
5) Mac OS X 10.8.5 installation package

The installation package can be downloaded from the torrent.

2. Install 1) convert the ISO for Mac OS X operating system installation package
-Download and install software: Mac OS X 10.8 installation package, 7-zip, dmg2img
-Execute the following two commands, respectively. Also, note that the program path for 7z and dmg2img
7z E "Here is the path to download the Mac OS X 10.8 installation Package" Installesd.dmg-r
Dmg2img-v-I installesd.dmg-o osx_10.8.5.iso
Also, it is important to note that if the installation package is 10.9, 10.10, you cannot get the ISO through the above steps. Because the 10.9, 10.10 dmg is not bootable. For more information, refer to the 1th reply to the following post: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/290949- how-to-install-os-x-10x-snow-leopard-lion-mountain-lion-mavericks-and-yosemite-in-vmware-workstation-1011-or-player-67 /。

2) Download and install Vmvare Player 7.0

3) Download Unlocker 2.0.4. Then, run Win-install.cmd with the administrator
4) New Virtual machine
-Start Vmvare Player
-Create a new virtual machine
-Choose to install the operating system later
-Choose Apple Mac OS X, version 10.8. If you do not perform the unlocker configuration steps above, there will be no Apple Mac OS x option
-After the configuration, follow the default is good. The larger the memory, the better. Memory, hard disk configuration follow-up can be adjusted
-Also, in virtual machine configuration, options->general, change enhanced virtual keyboard to use if available (recommended). This can solve the problem that sometimes there is no keyboard input in the virtual machine.

5)heyper-v problem handling

Confirm close Hyper-V service!!! Otherwise, the virtual machine cannot be started. Because Hyper-V and Vmvare both use hardware virtualization capabilities. If the Hyper-V service is installed (for example, Visual Studio is installed), execute the following command to shut down the Hyper-V service and restart the computer.

Bcdedit/set Hypervisorlaunchtype off

Also, if you want to turn on the Hyper-V service again, you can execute the following command and restart the computer.
Bcdedit/set Hypervisorlaunchtype Auto
6) Install Mac OS X 10.8
-In the virtual machine's CD/DVD, select the previously converted ISO file
-Start the virtual machine

- vcpus problem handling

After you start a virtual machine, you may encounter Vcpus Error:vmvare player unreconverable Error vcpu-0

You can solve this problem: find the location where the virtual machine is saved, open the. vmx file with Notepad, and add the following line at the end to resolve the issue!
smc.version = 0

-Install the operating system

Simply put, the disk utility partition is first formatted, and then you can start installing the operating system. Detailed steps can be consulted here: http://unmi.cc/vmware9-install-mac-os-x-mountain-lion/.

7) Install Vmvare tools.
-In the virtual machine's CD/DVD, select the Darwin.iso in the Tools directory in the Unlocker directory

-Install and restart

At this point, you can change the display resolution.
