Virtual Machine Installation Macintosh Discovery

Want to install a Mac OS with VirtualBox, in Pcbeta to find the original image shared by users, Mount installation, the results in the installation is not stuck in the interface, is constantly installed, obviously not so simple. VirtualBox in the user manual is written to support the native OSX.

3.1.1. Mac OS X Guests

Starting with version 3.2, VirtualBox have experimental support for MAC OS X guests. This allows the install and execute unmodified versions of MAC OS X on supported host hardware.

Whereas competing solutions perform modifications to the MAC OS X install DVDs (e.g. different boot loader and replaced fi Les), VirtualBox is the first product to provide the modern PC architecture expected by OS X without requiring any "hacks" .

You should is aware of a number of important issues before attempting to install a MAC OS X guest:

2. Mac OS X is commercial, licensed software and contains both license and technical restrictions th At limit it use to certain hardware and usage scenarios. It is important so you understand and obey these restrictions.

   In particular, for most versions of Mac OS X, Apple prohibits installing them on non-apple hardware.

   These license restrictions is also enforced on a technical level. Mac OS X verifies whether it's running on Apple hardware, and the most DVDs that's come with Apple hardware even check for An exact model. These restrictions is not circumvented by VirtualBox and continue to apply.

4. Only CPUs known and tested by Apple is supported. As a result, if your Intel CPU is newer than the build of Mac OS X, or if you have a Non-intel CPU, it'll most likely PA Nic during bootup with a "unsupported CPU" exception. It's generally best-use the Mac OS X DVD, which came with your Apple hardware.

6. The MAC OS X Installer expects the harddisk to being partitioned so if it does not an offer a selection and you had to Launch the disk Utility from the "Tools" menu and partition the hard Disk. Then close the Disk Utility and proceed with the installation.

8. In addition, as Mac OS X VirtualBox are currently still experimental, please refer also to Chapter, known Limitations.

Do not know what the reason, is not the image of the download is not correct, you need to purchase a genuine image.

I've been tossing around and knowing something about the black apples:

-------------

Hardware

Since Apple announced its move from POWEPC to the Intel platform, it has made it possible for Intel-based machines to increase their use of OSX. This has resulted in a number of project groups such as OSx86.

Because of the number of Apple Mac models, the official need to support the hardware, the official only need to provide drivers. If you do not have the hardware, although the Intel platform, but no driver will be installed.

In addition, the virtual machine hardware exactly what is, just found that in the VirtualBox has a motherboard chipset specifically for OSX set to ICH9, (you can use the Mac OSX boot image to check, see what is displayed.) ）

In order to allow the compatible machine to use OSX, a lot of hackers, changed the software, what kernel patches and other things, so that some other compatible functions to use. Also, if your chip model is as good as Apple, it might be more convenient.

Image of the original

Online circulation should be Apple online update download down, then shared the image, did not find similar msdn.itellyou such as the site, do not know there is no?

Hack pathway

-Kernel hack. mentioned before, God.

-EFI hack. EFI as an intermediary for BIOS replacements, hardware and system communications, EFI is considered a legitimate way because it has not changed OSX's code. Using only the EFI hack normally uses OSX, which is not the premise of hardware.

----------------

Hackintosh

Found a hack image file Iatkos_s3_version2, version of the corresponding 10.6

It seems useless to view the supporting files that provide mirroring, but the key is not knowing the hardware of the virtual machine.

The tool in the mirror is called a chameleon, and may be able to specify a startup parameter called the name. For example, in what mode to start the system, such as-V, this option indicates that the boot can see debug information.

Installation Preparation: Install in VirtualBox, turn off EFI. VirtualBox wrote that EFI provided some special systems like OSX, but there was no way to cancel them. Installation to the end, a critical error occurred, kernel panic kernel issue.

Installation process: You can customize the installed hack kernel and drivers in the Installation wizard. Installation to the end, VirtualBox reported a serious error. Kenerl Panic kernel error.

Restart: can start, but not shutdown,-v start, a shutdown can be found or kernel errors, direct prompts need to long press the power key of a few country language tips.
