The_Moves Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 So far, I have been unable to get Chameleon or any other bootloaders to load when I start or reboot my OS X VM. The only reason I am interested in using a seperate bootloader is so I can pass agruments for specefic FrameBuffer Personalities with my VT-d passthrough AMD Radeon gpu - also from my research, having a bootloader like Chameleon will allow me to get HDMI audio working. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Moves Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Will look into the Clover bootloader, will it work with ESXi though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Moves Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 Well ESXi and it's virtual EFI? Or do I just boot the VM as a Linux guest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Moves Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 I've tried to boot the VM using legacy Bios, but when I point the VM to the Clover ISO it just shows 5 lines, the last one mentioning the CDROM. When I boot using EFi, and install Clover, it appears that Clover is completely ignored upon starting the VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Moves Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Clover http://sourceforge.n.../cloverefiboot/ Chameleon http://www.insanelym...ameleon-22-svn/ iFire, I have been unable to get my OS X VM to reognize Chameleon or Clover on boot up. When I load Chameleon to USB, boot off to it via passthrough, it loads initially - but only give me one possible selection, which is itself. It doesn't seem to scan the attached drives which the EFI bios was aware of. Any thoughts? Maybe I can install something like Clover or rEFI onto another VMDK?
