Rob_Quads Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I have obtained the precanned VMWare image of OS-X. I have the following files floppy.flp tiger-x86.nvram tiger-x86.vmdk tiger-x86.vmsd tiger-x86.vmx tiger-x86-flat.img Is my understanding right that I should be able to boot this as a straight VM image? I have tried in both VMWare 5 and 5.5 both with no success. I have changed the location of the flody in the vmx file but the vmdk file is never recognised as a disk. I am just looking to launch osX86 in a VM session and have a look at it rather than install it onto my actual machine. Any ideas?

macgirl Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Open the vmx in a text editor, edit the lines that need it because maybe your location of files are different. Second option is to add a NEW virtual machine as BSD, when adding the HD image just point to the existent.
