Mac Os X Snow Leopard Iso For Virtualbox Download

EDIT: I found another way to install Snow Leo in Virtualbox I used:-Retail Snow Leopard DVD.iso-EmpireEFI.iso-VirtualBox 3.1.51-Ubuntu 9.10 Host The instalation was flawless, network worked out of the box. Some issues: the OS boots only with EmpireEFI. Mouse and keyboard sometimes crash. I think I need to find some patches or something.

It is impossible to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard inside Virtualbox using Windows in the past due to incompatibility issues. Unless you make use of custom modified Mac OS X builds, you may stand a chance in getting the Mac OS X Snow leopard installed inside Windows. But there is no need to wait any longer. Install Mac OS X Snow Leopard inside Virtualbox using Windows is possible. There are guides out there that state that you will need a Mac 10.6.3 disc etc, but there is no need to. I will show you how to install with the retail disc. I don’t think there is a need for any particular version. For anyone who claimed that they have failed or get stuck in the installation, it is probably due to the settings in Virtualbox.

Step 1

Vdi

Preparation

1. Download or get a copy of the Mac OS X Snow Leopard installation CD. I don’t think it is appropriate for me to reveal openly where to get a copy. Ermm..

2. Download the iboot software from tonymac forums.

3. Install Virtualbox software. I don’t think I need to elaborate on how to do this? Download the Virtualbox Extension pack and install as well. This is optional, but I think it helps to improve the stability and usablity of the USB support when you install Mac OS X in Virtualbox

Reboot your computer so that the settings can be written and your system is updated

Step 2

Setup Phase

Start up the Virtualbox software. Click on “New” icon and create a new virtual machine. In the first entry, type in any name for this new machine. Select Mac OS X for the “Operating System” and “Mac OS X Server” for the Version.

Under General Settings, under Processor tab, use 1 CPU if you experience the Kernel Panic all the time. I find it more stable to run using a single CPU.

The rams will be default at 1Gigs, but if you have a ton of rams, it is recommended you adjust the memory higher. But don’t over do it or your own system will suffer from lag.

The next prompt will ask you if you wish to create a new disk or use an existing one, choose create a new disk and the type will be VDI. I prefer fixed size drives then dynamically expanding. Fixed size drives tend to be more stable.

Remember that you are going to install a Mac OS X which requires at least 12 Gigs of basic installation space. So create a large disk, personally I feel that it should be of at least 50 Gigs.

After creating the disc, it will show up as one of the virtual machines you can use on the left side. Now we will need to edit some of the settings. Highlight your virtual machine and click on the “settings” icon at the top. You are required to make changes to the following.

1. Under the “System” => Exended features, uncheck the “Enable EFI”

2. Under the “Display” => Video Memory, increase it to the max and enable 3D (optional )

3. Under the “Storage” => remove the current arrangement and re-attach as IDE and not Sata. Also change the IDE Controller to be ICH6

4. Audio should be set as Intel HD Audio

5. Network => Set as Nat but click on the “Advanced” tab and change it to Intel Pro/1000MT

Step 3

Installing

There are a few ways to mount the disc, but I will state one of the ways. Highlight your Mac OS X virtual machine and Start the virtual machine going. Once it has started, click on “Devices” => CD/DVD => Choose a virtual CD/DVD file.

Browse from here and navigate to your iboot.iso file and select that file. After that, click on the “Machine” ,menu and select “Reset”. The iboot interface should show up. If it does not show up, hit F12 when the virtual machine is just about to start up and hit c to choose to boot off from CD drive.

Now click on the Devices” => CD/DVD => Choose a virtual CD/DVD file. Choose your Mac OS X Snow Leopard.iso file or just point to the drive that has the physical Mac OS X DVD. Click on the virtual machine and Hit F5 so that all commands will be registered in the virtual machine and not on your Windows computer.

The icon should now change to a Mac OS X instead of iboot. Hit enter and it will proceed to install. You will eventually get to the Mac OS installation interface screen. After selecting your languge, click on the “Utilities” => “Disk Utility”. You will need to partition your drive.

At this phase of the installation, you can follow the previous guides on how to install the Mac OS X onto a normal computer and finish off with the installation. The only difference will be that when you need to eject the installation disc so that you can insert the iboot disc, simply mount and unmount the iso via the Virtualbox software.

Due to the fact that “Shared folders” in Virtualbox do not work for Mac at all, one way to share files between the Virtual Mac and the computer is to create a network file sharing setup and connect to the Windows via IP.

From your host Windows operating system, Press the “Windows Key + R” and type “cmd” without the quotes, hit enter to open the command prompt. Type “ipconfig” without the quotes and hit enter. You will get a listing of IP addresses. Identify the IP that belongs to your computer.

Using the Mac OS X in Virtualbox, you must connect to your Windows Desktop by means of networking. Go to the “Settings” option of the Mac OS X, under “Sharing”, put a tick on enable file sharing.

Click on the Finder, or Desktop and click on the “Go” option in the menu followed by “Connect to Server”. Key in your IP into the box as follows.

You may get a prompt asking you which account, password etc. This is the folder that you have set to share in your Windows computer. If you did not enable sharing at all in your Windows computer, you won’t be able to connect your Virtualbox Mac OS to your Windows.

I have a MacBook Pro, 2011 vintage, running Snow Leopard and have VirtualBox 4.2.36 installed, with the extension pack (I believe this is the latest version of VirtualBox to run on Snow Leopard?). I require Snow Leopard to work and run a lot of software which will not run on later versions of Mac OS X. I have been keeping this MacBook Pro and two other backup Apple laptops which run Snow Leopard (another MacBook Pro and a MacBook). However, all three computers are now exhibiting hardware failure and repair shops are unable to keep repairing them, despite me being happy to pay a premium for this service.

  1. Virtualising Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server/Rosetta The ability to virtualise Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is important and very useful as it is the only way to use Rosetta (PowerPC) based applications on a modern Macintosh computer. MacStrategy presents a special guide to doing just this.

I therefore will have to buy a new Apple laptop with a later version of Mac OS X and which will be unable to run Snow Leopard. However, Snow Leopard is an absolute requirement for me and a later version of Mac OS X is not acceptable, therefore my only option is to run Snow Leopard inside a virtual machine on such a new Apple laptop. My current installation is Snow Leopard Client (10.6.8 ) but I have no problem buying on e-bay and installing a copy of Snow Leopard Server if that is required to comply with the EULA, although this would be a lot of hassle because my current installation is heavily customized and this would require a complete reinstall and redoing all the customizations which have accumulated over many years, probably mostly, but not entirely, documented.Leopards
As a first step, I have tried installing Snow Leopard inside a virtual machine on my Snow Leopard MacBook Pro, to see how usable this is and how viable my proposition is: is the emulation comprehensive enough and stable enough, for example?

It didn't work. At all.
When I create a Mac OS X virtual machine and boot off the Snow Leopard DVD, the boot process stops with the message 'Unknown4 of GetVar called'.
Do you have any advice on how to get this going?
Thank you.
