kocoman Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Has anyone tried to Run Snow Leopard as Guest in Parallels I know its done in Vmware fusion.. via the darwin.iso patch, or the touch plist method.. with parallels, the same problem occurs "An invalid Mac OS version is specified" I tried to use the touch plist method, but it just 'quits' after the bios screen.. I've looked at the verbose logs.. but they don't say anything working log (using real SL server disc) 12:06:19.934 F /vm:4569:6203/ Virtual machine is ready to boot! 12:06:22.784 F /DVDImage:4569:4d03/ /dev/disk2 Chipset Type i965, 1 CPU(s) (NORTH HUB DID&VID=0x808629A0) $#HPET INIT FirstStartInit is OK [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xff [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xd0 12:06:28.077 D /vm:4569:702f/ [CMouseDispatcher] Drop event, no state changed (absolute) 12:06:29.028 D /vm:4569:702f/ [CMouseDispatcher] Drop event, no state changed (absolute) 12:06:30.905 D /vm:4569:702f/ [CMouseDispatcher] Drop event, no state changed (absolute) 12:06:32.457 D /vm:4569:702f/ [CMouseDispatcher] Drop event, no state changed (absolute) Capv: Registered (exec:ffffff801b678000(6400) rsvd:1b712000(6000) stack:ffffff801b3cc000(1000)) hlpr:1b3de296 size1:cc size2:cc 64stub=0 [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xff [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xd0 Capv_Win64Patch_Deadline 12:06:32.658 D /vm:4569:702f/ [CMouseDispatcher] Drop event, no state changed (absolute) >>>>>>>>>> DMM >>>>>>>>>> not working log 12:08:04.006 F /vm:4595:6103/ Virtual machine is ready to boot!12:08:04.481 F /vm:4595:1d03/ Vm {9b318197-be75-4647-b95a-224cc0a34294} processing command DspCmdVmInitiateDevStateNotifications .... 12:08:04.511 F /vm:4595:1d03/ Vm {9b318197-be75-4647-b95a-224cc0a34294} processed command DspCmdVmInitiateDevStateNotifications with status 1 12:08:06.917 F /DVDImage:4595:4d03/ /dev/disk2 Chipset Type i965, 1 CPU(s) (NORTH HUB DID&VID=0x808629A0) $#HPET INIT FirstStartInit is OK [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xff [1f:0] Secondary bus number 0xd0 12:08:16.649 F /vm:4595:3707/ Event loop terminated - deinited 12:08:16.650 F /vm:4595:3707/ Setting ASYNC_REQ_SHUTDOWN for Vm 12:08:16.650 F /vm:4595:3707/ Terminating CPU #0 ...

D-an-W Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hi kocoman, does the method you posted elsewhere still work ok for you? Actually I got it working. Install SL **SERVER** first, then ADD new Virtual HDD then reboot then mount the SL **CLIENT** DMG cd /Volumes/your DMG run sudo run System/Installation/CDIS/Mac\ OS\ X\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Mac\ OS\ X\ Installer Install to blank disk (don't worry it won't reboot afterwards) then run cd /Volumes/YOUR FRESH SL CLIENT touch System/Library/CoreServices/ServerVersion.plist shutdown then "remove" (not delete) your server virtual drive then make the CLIENT drive the only drive boot again it works on Fusion and Parallels don't need to do the darwin.iso etc patch anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
