El Capitan Virtualbox

April 13, 2016

I am very interesting to install Mac OS in my desktop computer using VirtualBox. I have created steps how to install Mac OS in VirtualBox. But, you need existing Mac OS to create bootable Mac OS.

Still Waiting For Root Device; I was exciting when VirtualBox 5.0.1 101778 recognized USB devices on OS X El Capitan beta 5. Aug 12, 2013 I speak for all of us in saying Thank You, D. Apr 15, 2018 Fixed still waiting for root device Hackintosh 2018, All Required Files Are Provided,Follow The Finks. El Capitan 10.11.6 is now released as the latest version of Download El Capitan. For OS X El Capitan users this update is recommended. The upgrade to OS X El Capitan v10.11.6 enhances your Mac's reliability, performance and protection and is advised for all users. Solves a problem that can prevent parental control accounts from saving settings.

I want to install Mac El Capitan (10.11) in my VirtualBox. I dont have fast internet connection. So, I am search an iso Mac El Capitan over internet.

1. Download El Capitan iso image. If you have bootable Mac, you can continue to step 4. I donwnload the iso image from this link : http://getpcsoft.wikisend.com/mac-os-x-1011-el-capitan-free-download.html.

2. The Mac iso image from link above not bootable (El Capitan.dmg). So, we need to convert Mac not bootable to iso bootable. I have convert *.dmg file to iso bootable iso using this script (you need to run this script from your existing Mac).

3. Using above script, we get ElCaption.iso. This file is bootable iso image needed to install El Capiton (Mac 10.11) in VirtualBox.

4. Open VirtualBox, create a new Mac project. I have created project using this setting. If you want change project Name, dont forget to edit text command in next steps too.

5. Close VirtualBox. Choose a Mac Model similar to your host system. Open your console and type this text. I have choose “MacBookPro11,3” in my desktop computer.

6. Optional- For some host systems eg those with Haswell CPUs, you might have to spoof an older CPU to avoid VirtualBox errors. You can try from one of the following if this happens:

7. Open VirtualBox and run our Mac10.11 Project. I think you already know how to install Mac in your computer. If not, you can search over internet.

8. When you success install Mac In your VirtualBox, you can change default screen resolution using this command :

9. Adding serials and other SMBIOS details for the System Information Screen (optional)

I was recently asked by a client to port a simple web-based javascript program to an iOS app. I was pretty keen to try my hand at something new, however I’ve got a big idealogical problem with Apple – mostly because I think their hardware products are hugely overpriced for the specifications but also because of their annoying insistence that you have to develop for iOS on mac software. It’s not like Windows or Andriod which you can develop on any platform. So, I’m not willing to buy a mac (especially since I’ve just recently bought a nice new laptop), but I want to have a go at developing an iOS app…

Enter Virtualbox. It’s a piece of software that allows you to run a virtual computer ‘guest’ inside your standard computer ‘host’. I’ve used it before to have a separate windows installation for games and development, but I recently found out it was possible to run mac OS X too. It’s almost impossible to run OS X on anything other than official apple hardware, but it turns out the ‘guest’ machines created by virtualbox can be tweaked and are much easier to get OS X running. By the way you should know that this is not really in line with Apple’s T&C’s….

Realistically you are going to need a quad core processor with at least 8GB of ram on your host machine. Here’s a step by step guide:

1. Download virtualbox (I’m using version 5.1) and install it, along with Winrar or 7zip and some torrent downloading software if you don’t have those already.

2. Download the mac OS X El Capitan virtualbox disk, and unzip it. The following link contains details of the download (you’ll need to follow my instructions to get the screen resolution and apple ID working correctly though..)

3. Open virtualbox and click ‘New’ to create a new virtual machine with the following details:
Name: El Capitan
Type: Mac OS X
Version: Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan (64 bit)

Click next, select 4GB of RAM, and next again.
Select the El Capitan image that you have downloaded and unzipped as the disk image, and create the machine.


Back in the virtualbox manager, select your virtual machine and click edit.

Capitan

In System>Motherboard, ensure that EFI is Enabled, Floppy id Disabled, Chipset is PIIX3.

In System>Processor, select two CPUs.

4. Open the windows command prompt as Administrator (type cmd at the start menu, right click and ‘Run as Administrator’)

You can leave the command line window open.

5. Boot the virtual machine, and complete the setup for location and keyboard but DO NOT sign in with an Apple ID because it will not work until we have completed some steps below.

6. Open safari, search for and download a program called Chameleon Wizard. You will probably need to change the system settings to allow non-app store programs to run. Open Chameleon Wizard and click on the SMbios tab.

Click Edit, and then select one of the pre-made SMbioses. Choose the type of mac you want (doesn’t really matter what, but best to resemble the virtual machine you’ve create I reckon), choose a manufacturing location and randomise the week of manufacture. It will generate spoof identification for the virtual machine. Copy down the Product Name; Board Product; and Serial and shutdown the virtua lmachine.

7. In windows, in the command line windows, enter the following commands, replacing the 3 items of information you just copied down.

8. The display resolutions are fixed and you can’t get all of them. To set up your display,
in the windows command line enter the following (Where N can be one of 0,1,2,3,4,5 referring to the 640×480, 800×600, 1024×768, 1280×1024, 1440×900, 1920×1200 screen resolution respectively.)

Close the command line window.

9. You can now boot the virtual machine, and will be able to log into it with an Apple ID. If you don’t have one, just google Apple ID and you can create one on the Apple website. You can then log into the App Store and will be able to download apps and update as per a standard installation.
