heiesuke Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I'm almost sure VMWare doesn't support Mac OS X. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54884-unable-to-find-driver-acpi/#findComment-392807 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macshiba Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I'm almost sure VMWare doesn't support Mac OS X. Yeah it does, atleast the newest version does. I have installed it and ran it, so I dont know what the problem is here. Restart the virtual machine and -v at the prompt and see where it hangs. It could be just that youre using an older version of VMWare.

Mysticus C* Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hello guys, I was having the same problem with 10.4.8 install... But it seems that i get passed that very easily It was asking for ACPI driver so I gave it my old drivers... from 10.4.6... I think the problem was 10.4.8 installation not copying two files (AppleACPIPlatform...kext + IOACPI...kext) so system cant start for some reason... Here is how i did it... I had installed 10.4.6 before already, and have xp also, than installed transmac softwared to copy the files (named below)... to my other system 10.4.8 partition under /system/library/extensions and there you go, system started with no problems... but knowing from previous experience about repairing permissions... i did it from 10.4.6 I dunno how u can do it w/o some expert help needed + AppleACPIPlatform.kext + IOACPI....kext (dont remember full name) Anyways, If you are dual booting, it is easy to do it. just copy these two files... done...
