Mac OS X Unlocker for VMware V2.0   Please ask questions in this thread http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/303311-workstation-1112-player-712-fusion-78-and-esxi-6-mac-os-x-unlocker-2/ 1. Introduction   Unlocker 2 is designed for Workstation 11, Player 7, ESXi 6 and Fusion 7.   If you are using an earlier product please continue using Unlocker 1   Version 2 has been tested against: Workstation 11/12 on Windows and Linux
Player 7 & Workstation Player 12 on Windows and Linux
Fusion 7/8 on Mavericks and Yosemite
ESXi 6.0
The patch code carries out the following modifications dependent on the product being patched: Fix vmware-vmx and derivatives to allow Mac OS X to boot
Fix vmwarebase .dll or .so to allow Apple to be selected during VM creation
Fix libvmkctl.so on ESXi 6 to allow use with vCenter

Download a copy of the latest VMware Tools for OS X
Note that not all products recognise the darwin.iso via install tools menu item. You will have to manually mount the darwin.iso for example on Workstation 11 and Player 7.   The vmwarebase code does not need to be patched on OS X or ESXi so you will see a message on those systems telling you that it will not be patched.   In all cases make sure VMware is not running, and any background guests have been shutdown.   The code is now Python as it makes the Unlocker easier to run and maintain on ESXi. There are some challenges to write the code as ESXi has a subset of Python 2.7 which constrains some modules that can be used.   2. Prerequisites   The code requires Python 2.7 to work. Most Linux distros, ESXi and OS X ship with a compatible Python interpreter and should work without requiring any additional software.   Windows has a packaged version of the Python script using PyInstaller, and so does not require Python to be installed.   3. Limitations   If you are using VMware Player or Workstation on Windows you may get a core dump.   Latest Linux and ESXi products are OK and do not show this problem.   IMPORTANT:   If you create a new VM using version 11 hardware VMware will stop and create a core dump.There are two options to work around this issue: 1. Change the VM to be HW 10 - this does not affect performance. 2. Edit the VMX file and add: smc.version = "0" | 4. Windows   On Windows you will need to either run cmd.exe as Administrator or using Explorer right click on the command file and select "Run as administrator".   win-install.cmd - patches VMware win-uninstall.cmd - restores VMware win-update-tools.cmd - retrieves latest OS X guest tools   5. Linux   On Linux you will need to be either root or use sudo to run the scripts.   You may need to ensure the Linux scripts have execute permissions by running chmod +x against the 2 files.   lnx-install.sh - patches VMware lnx-uninstall.sh - restores VMware lnx-update-tools.cmd - retrieves latest OS X guest tools   6. Mac OS X   On Mac OS X you will need to be either root or use sudo to run the scripts. This is really only needed if you want to use client versions of Mac OS X.   You may need to ensure the OS X scripts have execute permissions by running chmod +x against the 2 files.   osx-install.sh - patches VMware osx-uninstall.sh - restores VMware   7. ESXi   You will need to transfer the zip file to the ESXi host either using vSphere client or SCP.   Once uploaded you will need to either use the ESXi support console or use SSH to run the commands. Use the unzip command to extract the files.   <<< WARNING: use a datastore volume to run the scripts >>>   Please note that you will need to reboot the host for the patches to become active. The patcher is embbedded in a shell script local.sh which is run at boot from /etc/rc.local.d.   You may need to ensure the ESXi scripts have execute permissions by running chmod +x against the 2 files.   esxi-install.sh - patches VMware esxi-uninstall.sh - restores VMware   Note: 1. Any changes you have made to local.sh will be lost. If you have made changes to that file, you will need to merge them into the supplied local.sh file. 2. The unlocker runs at boot time to patch the relevant files and it now survives an upgrade or patch to ESXi as local.sh is part of the persisted local state.   8. Thanks   Thanks to Zenith432 for originally building the C++ unlocker and Mac Son of Knife (MSoK) for all the testing and support.   Thanks also to Sam B for finding the solution for ESXi 6 and helping me with debugging expertise. Sam also wrote the code for patching ESXi ELF files.     History   12/12/14 2.0.0 First release

default boot after timeout into previous chosen OS
customizable GUI: themes support, own icons, fonts, background image, animated pictures, mouse pointers.
F1 - multilingual help, depending on language in config
saving preboot.log from GUI by typing F2 and system.log for debug
save original (OEM) ACPI tables by pressing F4
test DSDT patching with F5
save videoBIOS into EFI/misc by pressing F6
saving screenshots from GUI typing F10
CD/DVD eject by F12 and refresh menu after CD insertion
change GUI resolution by PgUp/PgDown
save BOOT0000 option to NVRAM (like bcfg in Shell)
call to Shell.efi

InsanelyRepairPermission is a command line that is able to repair kexts permissions in the current Volume or other Volumes as you wish.   It repair kexts permission for:   /Extra/KPKexts (since v1.1) /Extra/Extensions /System/Library/Extensions /Library/Extensions     Usage (new version 1.1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- to verify: sudo InsanelyRepairPermission -v /Volumes/Your Volume (or simply /)   to repair: sudo InsanelyRepairPermission -r /Volumes/Your Volume   to repair and touch (will cause the kernelcache/prelinked to be rebuilt): sudo InsanelyRepairPermission -rt /Volumes/Your Volume ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage (version 1.0)     repairs only files that have incorrect permissions, if they are ok tells you that there are no files to be repaired.   NOTE: In El Capitan you should need to boot with SIP disabled or a permissive CSR config   Codes comes from Zeus.app:   // Created by Micky1979 on 04/01/14. // Copyright © 2014-2015 InsanelyMac.
