[Guide] AMD OSx86 - install Snow Leopard on VMware Fusion

[librarain]

Hi! First, sorry for my poor english. :blink:

AMD CPU doesn't support Intel-VT, so we need to modify some settings.

1. create new virtual machine, guestOS: Mac OS X Server 10.6
2. Edit Mac OS X Server 10.6.vmx:
　　delete firmware = "efi"
　　change guestOS = "darwin10" to freebsd
　　add sound.present = "TRUE"
　　　　sound.fileName = "-1"
　　　　sound.autodetect = "TRUE"
3. mount Mac OS X Server 10.6.vmdk -> /Volumes/Macintosh HD
4. mount SL install dmg, go to folder /Mac OS X Install DVD/System/Installation/Packages/, launch OSInstall.mpkg, install SL to /Volumes/Macintosh HD
5. install Chameleon 2.0 RC2 r640 to /Volumes/Macintosh HD
6. install PC EFI V10.4 to /Volumes/Macintosh HD
7. replace the original vanilla mach_kernel (/Volumes/Macintosh HD/mach_kernel) with qoopz kernel
8. place fakesmc.kext in /Volumes/Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions
9. install vmware virtual ps/2 keyboard/mouse driver: VoodooPS2Controller-0.98-installer.pkg to /Volumes/Macintosh HD
10. start up SL virtual machine in verbose mode, install vga driver VMsvga2 and sound driver EnsoniqAudioPCI
11. use Marvin’s AMD Utility to do cpuids patch.

All done!
