#OLD MAC OS FOR VIRTUALBOX UPDATE#
Until/unless the VirtualBox team update the product to allow OS X to run 64-bit, it's a novelty. If you need to actually do real work with the VM, get Parallels or Fusion. So beware of your limitations you can only have 3Gb RAM in your OS X guest OS, period. We tried *hard* to get it to work in 64-bit mode but nothing worked.
iso, you run the installer, you tell VirtualBox to emulate an older CPU, and then it will boot.īut it will only boot in 32-bit mode. It's quite possible to install OS X into a VirtualBox guest without using DVDs or USB drives. Yes, doing everything with DVDs is a PITA. A couple of posts mentioned that, and if there's a way I can create a virtual USB drive, that would work. I'm finding a few different references to it, but not here, so i thought I'd ask while I keep looking.ĮTA: I can't use USB devices. After I select the disk in the installer I wind up with an "undefined error: 0" I can use Disk utility to format my vdisk.
