librarain Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi! First, sorry for my poor english. AMD CPU doesn't support Intel-VT, so we need to modify some settings. 1. create new virtual machine, guestOS: Mac OS X Server 10.6 2. Edit Mac OS X Server 10.6.vmx: delete firmware = "efi" change guestOS = "darwin10" to freebsd add sound.present = "TRUE" sound.fileName = "-1" sound.autodetect = "TRUE" 3. mount Mac OS X Server 10.6.vmdk -> /Volumes/Macintosh HD 4. mount SL install dmg, go to folder /Mac OS X Install DVD/System/Installation/Packages/, launch OSInstall.mpkg, install SL to /Volumes/Macintosh HD 5. install Chameleon 2.0 RC2 r640 to /Volumes/Macintosh HD 6. install PC EFI V10.4 to /Volumes/Macintosh HD 7. replace the original vanilla mach_kernel (/Volumes/Macintosh HD/mach_kernel) with qoopz kernel 8. place fakesmc.kext in /Volumes/Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions 9. install vmware virtual ps/2 keyboard/mouse driver: VoodooPS2Controller-0.98-installer.pkg to /Volumes/Macintosh HD 10. start up SL virtual machine in verbose mode, install vga driver VMsvga2 and sound driver EnsoniqAudioPCI 11. use Marvin’s AMD Utility to do cpuids patch. All done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juancferrer Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 This image will only work in vmware fusion, right?? There's still no way to run snow leopard guest on a windows vmware workstation host? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librarain Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 This image will only work in vmware fusion, right?? There's still no way to run snow leopard guest on a windows vmware workstation host? no. you can copy Mac OS X 10.6.vmwarevm to windows, then use vmware ws to open it.

eaglehawk Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Unfortunately I tried this and it does not work under Fusion 3...maybe sometimes later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romeovoid Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Hi: Where does one get the "Mac OS X Server 10.6" vmware image refered to in this post? Tx R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hein Blöd Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Where does one get the "Mac OS X Server 10.6" vmware image refered to in this post?I think you create it from scratch. All the descriptions sound much like you do the steps from within an existing Leopard installation. That's the only way to "install OSInstall.mpkg", after all. Edit: Google for "Snowy_VM". It's a VMware machine prepared for VT-x with some 13 MB, only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hein Blöd Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 It's amazing how often you find "install PC EFI" without further instructions when googling for it. On what that actually means I have to guess, though: "Install PC EFI" means: - double-click the .zip, it contains a file with the name "boot". Let's assume "boot" is now in /tmp. Then: cd /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/ sudo mv /tmp/boot . sudo chown root:wheel ./boot sudo chmod 644 ./boot Still no Snow Leopard on my VMware, though. I have a non-VT Core2Duo. 10.5.8 works pretty well.

slolifesux Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 i kept getting boot loops with the guide in the beginning. so i upgraded to rc3 chameleon, built my own package, added bios rather than delete efi, and changed from freebsd to darwin10 and it booted for the first time.
