VMware Workstation 6.5에 iATKOS v7 (Leopard 10.5.7 -> 10.5.8) 설치하는 방법

Thanks ...

Testes With Workstation 7 and AMD Phenom II X4 ... all work good …

Thanks for sharing this configuration ...

After success install, my iakos v7 get error when booting

Thanks kailm for guide.
I wanted to get MacOS installed on my VMware. My VMware is v7 and my laptop is compaq cq40-324tu with:
CPU = Core 2 dual T6400
RAM = 2G bus 800
HDD = 320G
VGA = Intel GM45
OS = Windows 7
I did all following your guide and I finished installation process. But after the VMware restart and i put some commands as you recommended, the MacOS still go to error which make VMware reboot.
me.

@kailmBoot from virtual disk, hit F8, put in boot options of -v -f busratio=10 cpus=1

I can't seem to get F8 to do anything, it goes directly into chameleon bootloader :S

My laptop doesn't have virtualization option.
On chameleon v2 i tried many combo of flags as you recommended but the vmware after running startup process for while still went to restart error .

I feel like I get a little closer each time but nothing...it installs in VM Ware and when it boots chameleon after the restart i put in all of the following:
-v -f
-v -x
-v cpus=1 busratio=20 (what I used to get it to boot from the cd)
-v -f -x
-v -x cpus=1 busratio=20

and so on and so forth a bunch of different combos…anyone stuck in the same place or got past it and can give me a tip?

my comp specs are

i7 @ 2.67ghz, asus p6t mobo, 4 gigs ddr3 ram, geforce 9800 gt, and 2 500 gig hdds..I run windows 7

Ive been working with this for about a week now. when I first partitioned C and installed iAtkos it looked like it installed (like it always does) ok but when the system restarted itself and booted chameleon it didnt work..I tried booting up windows again but it crashed and I had to reinstall...

I need help Plz!

@Repr0bateI feel like I get a little closer each time but nothing...it installs in VM Ware and when it boots chameleon after the restart i put in all of the following: -v -f -v -x -v cpus=1 busratio=20 (what I used to get it to boot from the cd) -v -f -x -v -x cpus=1 busratio=20 and so on and so forth a bunch of different combos…anyone stuck in…

I have a similar setup - i7 @ 2.67ghz, P6T, 12GB RAM, GeForce 9600GT, VMWARE WS 6.5.3. But I run Ubuntu x64 as my host OS.

I managed to get my VM working as follows:

"-v cpus=1 busratio=20" after the CD bootloader pops up.

Similar custom install to the OP, except I used Voodoo 9.5 (9.7 did not work for me at all)

After the install and at the first reboot, same "-v cpus=1 busratio=20" and I got in. And the sound kext mentioned by the OP also worked for me, after-the-fact. I haven't gone any farther yet, but so far it's functional.

Kailm,

Thank you for this great post. It works very good.

problem getting into setup with aitkos v7

first of all hi and thanks for the geuide...
but i have a big problem doing so cause i doesn't even get to that point.
i set up my virtual machine and start it, push any button to get into setup, and then i fairly can see the apple and then... restart.
so what's wrong or what have i done wrong?
aitkos v5 workes fine with the same options.

also tried it directly from my pc's bios, no problems there at all...

my specs:
Core2Duo E6600
ASUS P5Bdeluxe Wifi/ap
2Gb Ram 800Mhz
VGA ATi X1800XT
Os Win7 Prof.

made it to finish setup but i cant start after the install,
when i hit F8 after installing booting with parameters it starts from the cd again if i hit nothing it boots from hdd (i think) but i get an error. cause i cant set any parameters.
when i disable the Iso in the VM i get an error "operating system not found - so what should i do now?

plz plz plz

i have a pc with intel cpu
i check all the requied system for mac & i have it
but when in want to install iatkos 10.5.7
after bood and press F8 & type -V
but i get this error
16558af/c/cd f1f0=16 maxbaud=115200
how i can skip it!
plz plz say how in can fix it! : : :

got it installed but...

made it...

got it to work,starting with another method by using the darwin.iso.

but now my VM runs with a retail Snow Leopard
using boot-123 procedure...
audio works perfectly, even system update via apple servers...

I also managed to complete the installation of iatkos v7 in vmware but the installed system refuses to boot throwing this error: Operation system not found.

Can you provide details of this other method that made it work?
I also came across reference to darwin.iso in another forum but the download link was broken. Where did you download it form?

im currently trying to install iatkos v7 with VMware. I have tried what is written in the forum, but when it beings the install. its simply fezzes on the spiny coloured wheel.

my computer speks are
AMD 6000+
N3M72-N motherboard
4 gig ram
Nividia 9800GT graphics card

I can get further with install when i try to install it as a second boot, but it just fezzes further on during the install.

next vm boot issue

I got it to install and boot using kernel 9.5. BTW, in the install instructions it says to enter "-v -busratio=10 cpus=1", I had to leave out the "- " (minus) sign before the word busratio to get it to work. It loaded os X fine and I had internet and so on, but when I shut down the VM and tried to boot it later, it just stalled at -14135 prompt. Any idea what changed? Here is the screenshot.

I am new at Macs but I have managed to install iATKOS V7 on my VMWare 7, but i cant seem to bootup normally unless i enter these startup options;

-v busratio=10 -cpus=1

I tried adding these strings to the com.apple.Boot.plist using the terminal window as "sudo nano"
but everytime i restart, i have to re-type those startup options again, this is how my boot.plist file looks like

<key>Kernel</key>
        <string>mach_kernel</string>
        <key>Kernel Flags</key>
        <string>-v</string>
        <string>busratio=10</string>
        <string>cpus=1</string>

Is there anything i am missing or that i am doing wrong? please advice.

thank you kailm, that is a good program to use in OSX, easy to modify the boot.plist file without running the command in terminal window

@ lanceomni; what can i say? U DA MAN! I cannot believe it was easy as that, now my os 10.6 boots up perfectly.. I thought i needed to add a string per boot option, newbie me.

Thanks man!

Hi, i was wondering how i can change the options without installing the complete os again every time
I'm trying to get this OS running on my pc, but for now, it won't work, and reboots after the install, and keeps rebooting. (even with all options.)
I already tried both kernels, but nothing seems to work till now.
Specs :
Asus striker extreme
Intel Q6600 processor
Ati Radeon 4890
4Gb OCZ memory
Windows 7
And running VMware 6.5

Greetings, Chris

VMWare Network Problem

Thanks for the instructions on installing iATKOS v7 on VMWare 6.5. Everything installed just fine on my Dell XPS M1730 with the instructions provided...except the network.

My network card is a "Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller", which I believe is actually a 5754, for what it's worth.

The really strange thing is, the NAT settings kind of work... I can ping ya hoo.com, for instance, and get replies. It can resolve the DNS name, etc, and I can ping all my local computers on the network.

However, Safari is unable to visit any website (one of those Can't Find Host or timeout type of errors). I notice upon boot up, Apple can't 'call home' to synchronize the clock. So why it's working in a bash shell and nowhere else, I have no idea why.

If I switch it to Bridged networking, there is just no hope with that.

I have tried both the 9.7 and 9.5 kernel installs. I've tried adding the Broadcom drivers during the install. Nada.

The only other indication that something is off, is that IFCONFIG says my network adapter is on EN2 instead of EN0.

(Note that I'm not concerned about WiFi, as I only do wired).

I see other posts regarding the Broadcom problem, but nothing specific to VMWare 6.5.1.

Any ideas? Are there any kexts I can try?

I managed to fix my own networking problem:

Seems it's an oddity in VMWare. I had to change the virtual network adapter to a CUSTOM network adapter. I switched it to VMnet2 (Bridged), and ensured that VMnet2 was bound directly to my Broadcom (wired) network adapter on the host.

Not sure if this was necessary, but I also deleted all the network adapters in my hackintosh by running this command, and then rebooting: 
sudo rm /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist

This reset my problem with en2 vs. en0.

Hope this helps someone out there in Hackintosh land.
