~pcwiz Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Hi, I got Uphuck 1.4iR3 working using this method: * Got an external drive * Installed Uphuck natively on it * Booted back into Win XP * Made a new VM in VMware Workstation 6 and set it to boot from my USB drive And it booted with no problems in VMware but I don't know if its going to work without an external drive so my question: Is there any way to clone an image of the HD and use it to boot from VMware?

nerdbot Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Haven't tried this, but just a suggestion: In Ubuntu, you can make a disk image of the OS X partition on the external drive using dd and then you can try converting the resulting iso to a vmdk image using qemu-img. Would be interested to see if that worked. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64862-uphuck-14ir3-on-vmware/#findComment-463766 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jharleman Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Booting natively/VMware works much better on a second drive whether internal or external due to primary partitions, etc. I am getting kernel panic with VMware WS 6 and Uphuck so what extensions did you install? cheers - jl Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64862-uphuck-14ir3-on-vmware/#findComment-464718 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmarsh Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi, I got Uphuck 1.4iR3 working using this method: * Got an external drive * Installed Uphuck natively on it * Booted back into Win XP * Made a new VM in VMware Workstation 6 and set it to boot from my USB drive And it booted with no problems in VMware but I don't know if its going to work without an external drive so my question: Is there any way to clone an image of the HD and use it to boot from VMware? Well here is a roundabout way that we used to use in the 10.4.1 days: 1) Under your host OS, dd your partition to a file on a partition that is readable under Linux. (NTFS is ok) You can get dd for Windows here: http://www.chrysocome.net/dd example dd if=\\?\Device\Harddisk1\Partition1 of=yourfilename 2) Start your virtual machine, but boot it off an image of a Linux rescue CD (I use 1st install disk from SUSE 10.2 & boot rescue system) Make sure it has a hard disk partition exactly the same size as the partition of your removable disk. Partition should be made active but does not need to be formatted. 3) Mount the partition yourfilename is on, not the partition you are writing to. 4) Use dd to copy yourfilename to your intended partition example dd if=yourfilename of=\dev\hda1 5) Reboot your virtual machine off your copied partition.

PooprScooper Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I got upchuck 10.4.9i installed in VMware by simply mixing two guides together: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Vmware_how_to and http://######.com/software/vmwareosx86.htm But both are wrong in certain places. To correctly install this upchuck ersion on VMware6 you need to 1) Custon 2) WindowsNT 3) Unknown which networking works, Bridged/Host Only 4) IDE Virtual Disk Type 5) Adding paevm="true" / ethernet0.virtualDev="e1000" /guestOS = "darwin" 6) Mount the Upchuck ISO within VMWare 7) Use DiskUtil to partition. Choose options and select MBR(ms-dos) 8) Only need to select the Main install file. It installed in 3 minutes and booted to the desktop. Only problem is trying to get networking working, but I'll leave that to another thread. The install works.

E@zyVG Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Is this image/version(?) a better choice than the Jas 10.4.8, to run on VMware on AMD SSE2/3 processor? Also, also better when trying to install as hackintosh?

Roman2K Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 For the network adapter to be detected, refer to this blog post. Maxxus has baked a driver that reportedly works under VMWare. I just tested it with deadmoo + VMWare Fusion: works like a charm :-).

david123 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Great forum, i got Uphuck 1.4iR3 working in VMWare Workstation 6.02 on my Thinkpad T61. Thanks ! But VMWare shows 100% CPU usage while Uphuck 1.4iR3 is running idle. With JaS 10.4.8 ppf1 ppf2 i did not have this problem. Any clues ?

Xavior Penguin Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I can verify that the VMware 6 with Uphuck 1.4iR3 is working. http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=4r0kaxfmmip&thumb=4 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64862-uphuck-14ir3-on-vmware/#findComment-528371 Share on other sites More sharing options...
