Os X El Cappitan Virtual Machine Vmware Player
Apr 21, 2017 Vmware workstation 12 player. My Hardware: System Model: HP Pavilion TS 14 Notebook PC. Thats why so interested in Virtual Machine. It is sad that you don't have anything better than Athlon II CPU. AMD OS X El Capitan VMWare Image #18274. By: Shaneee - Fri Apr 21, 2017 9:52 pm - Fri Apr 21, 2017 9:52 pm #18274. Now select “Apple Mac OS X” from operating system list then select macOS 10.12 from. When you played the VM, then it should take you to the next step setting up. Now while installing macOS Sierra or El Capitan on VMware or VirtualBox.
To accomplish this tutorial you already need a previous copy of OSX installed on VMWare Player or Workstation.
0) Acquire a copy of OSX 10.11 El Capitan
First of all you need to acquire a legal copy of OSX El Capitan from the App Store. This tutorial will not cover this part. Sorry :)
1) Unlock OSX option on VMWare
Download the latest version of VMWare Unlocker and use the relative binary to unlock it ( based on your Host OS ).
2) Create a 8GB Virtual vmdk
Disk
This will help us to create the Installation Media for a fresh new install of OSX El Capitan. Remember to attach it as SATA
on your current OSX Virtual Machine where you acquired your OSX El Capitan copy.
3) Initialize the 8GB vmdk
as HFS+ journaled
Assign the label InstallMedia
, we will use this later :)
4) Create the installation media
Open app the Terminal.app
and run this command:
and wait for it then to be finished. Meanwhile you can drink a Coffee or a Tea if you prefer :)
5) Create a OSX Virtual Machine container
Upon creation use the OSX 10.11
option. Everything else can be as it's suggested by default. Attach then the InstallMedia
vmdk we created before as SATA
.
6) Boot and enjoy
Now it's just as a normal installation on a Mac. You know what to do :)
PROTIP: Remember to not format or install OSX over your installation media. You'll see it as normal Hard Disk, so don't be confused!
7) Install the VMWare Tools
Remember to do it so you can get more Video Memory, better performances and the clipboard integration. Zoom for macos.
