it will work with standard Mac OS X from Apple. With those patches ported from Qemu to VirtualBox it won't require hacker's Mac OS X anymore. So this device also should be ported from Qemu.

The "Maxxsus 1.0 network patch" is essentially AMD PCnet network driver for Mac OS X).

VirtualBox will also need to emulate a better Ethernet controller, such as RTL8139 (or at least default to Intel E1000 for Mac guests), because Mac OS X doesn't have AMD PCnet built-in drivers (alternatively the driver can be installed via "Maxxsus 1.0 network patch" as GuestAdditions. Should this rather be sent to theįor details, instructions and the bootloader please seeġ0. Several ACPI entries were missing from the bios and the new controllers To boot multiboot-compliant kernelsĭirectly, this adds support for multiboot loading to the -kernel option. The original i386 Mac OS X BIOS based bootloader to emulate the EFIĮntries and support multiboot, an easy but straight-forward kernel To boot Mac OS X a mach bootloader has to be run. To leave the default behavior unchanged, this adds a "mac" machineĭefinition that automatically chooses the right hardware for an emulated Mac OS X and worked with libata for me as well. Incomplete implementation for that controller, that suffices for running The oldest supported IDE controller in Mac OS X is the ICH6. This adds a definition for a CoreDuo CPU and an MSR as well as a CPUID Mac OS X as is has a condition to only run on family 13 Intel CPUs, so This emulates the devices and takes the protective key from the This adds a dummy LPC device the HPET is located on.Īpples binary protection sits in the fan control, which is the AppleSMCĬhip. Submit it for completeness and because I have touched parts of it.
#IDENEB V1.6 10.5.8 LITE EDITION PATCH#
Patched, I would recommend to not apply this patch for now. Unclear, if this approach is taken or if the Bochsbios is going to be This is based on the DMI support by Ryan Harper. The following patchset enables qemu to run Mac OS X with disabledĪppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, by emulating hardware that resemblesĪn Intel Mac close enough. On 8.Jan.2008, Alexander Graf from Novell sent several patches to Qemu to enable real Mac OS X emulation, so the number of stupid workarounds will decrease dramatically. Qemu team developed initial "Intel Mac" hardware target patches for Qemu, that may be ported over here, if anyone is interested (and has the knowledge). ***For Developers only !!! (users must skip this) If anyone has experience using it, please let us know. Update: In may 2009 a new, hacked bootloader arrived, known as "boot-132". Perhaps, from a political point of view it would be smarter to work with Darwin first. iAtkos, Leo4All, Kalyway, and all other images will NOT run.įirst I would like to see VirtualBox improve to the way, where it will run Mac OS X without problems, then hope until someone convinces Apple. NOTE: It is not easy to make it work, so normal mortals should not even try. Tested on VBox 1.5.x on Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 on Windows XP 32 host. Verdict: it WORKS ! (with a workaround and not stable, but it WORKS !) Theoretically this should work on AMD too, but not tested. Requirements: Intel SSE3 and VT capable CPU. On VMware WS 6 it works (slowly) without any workarounds, but on VBox it is much faster. Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ To make change permanent just configure Mac OS X bootloader: (this disables ACPI, because Mac OS X dislikes VirtualBox's ACPI implementation due to incompleteness). This vmdk works on VirtualBox with only one modification to the boot command: platform=x86pc One of the images is Deadmoo's OS X for VMware.

This version doesn't require EFI and other Apple hardware, but works with normal PC hardware instead. but there are some hacker's versions of Mac OS X flying around the 'net. Of course, as all the hardware Mac OS X runs on with this solution is virtual, the very same approach enables potential users to run it on non-Apple hardware as well, which is illegal though. This is basically the same approach that Mac-on-Linux took, but this time with the Intel based version of Mac OS X. While the EULA clearly states, that running Mac OS X only once and only on Apple hardware is allowed, this does not exclude running it legally in a virtual machine on Apple hardware. Since I'm not a politician, and not a lawyer, I'll let others to figure this out.Īccording to Alexander Graf: (. Or some big company (Innotek?/VMware?) needs convince Apple to license their OS in different way. The only workaround I see here is to run VirtualBox on Mac hardware to virtualize Mac OS X. The problem needs to be devided into 2 aspects: political & technical.Īpple only allows their OS to run on Mac hardware. Update: VirtualBox 3.2 supports Mac OS X guests out-of-the-box, without the hacks described here. Let me tell my self the truth: I want Mac OS X guest support on VirtualBox.įoreword: This was originally written in 2007 for VirtualBox 1.5.x
