This video helped me get my VM up and running. Appreciate it. Wish you had a video for Yosemite or later.

i get a guru meditation when booting the snow leopard disc from iboot. i think this is cause i have an AMD cpu? is there any way to fix this?

EDIT:
Running the following in CMD seems to fix it, dont know if this works for other versions of Mac
cd %vbox_msi_install_path%
VBoxManage modifyvm "(VM Name)" --cpus 1
VBoxManage modifyvm "(VM Name)" --vram 128
VBoxManage setextradata "(VM Name)" VBoxInternal2/EfiGopMode 5
VBoxManage setextradata "(VM Name)" "VBoxInternal2/SmcDeviceKey"
rem You can use lower command to run on AMD
VBoxManage modifyvm "(VM Name)" --cpu-profile "Intel Core i7-6700K"

i get a problem now. after the instalation, i got the apple logo and at the end, it say "restart your computer" i do it for the virtual machine but it says me everytime. pls help !

[michaelbrooks]

If anyone is having the kernel panic when booting the install disc and it says restart your computer, go into Settings and hit the System tab then the Processor and change from 2 CPUs to 1. It looks to be a problem if you have a lower end computer with 4 CPUs and 2 recommended, perhaps it may be an Intel HD Graphics issue, but definitely if you’re setting up your machine, keep the Processor toggled at 1 CPU.

thanks man was trying to do this for a while

[AlexeiSvitkine]

I get a "A critical error has occurred while running the virtual machine" when starting to boot the SL iso. I tried both latest VirtualBox and 6.1.50 and it's the same... Any ideas?

[wuxhzmo]

thanks bro, this worked perfectly in 2023 december

[FlipAmbigram]

this doesnt work, i cant find the iboot file on the website and when i try to open the website where i can download it, it says that it doesnt exist

[KniteRiderYT]

when i press enter it just kernal panics

[qjbvyql]

Where did you get your install iso file from? I have the orginial install disc and the screen just freezes and I never get to the language menu. I have a downloaded version that gets to the progress bar and it stalls at that point and the time never progresses past 20 min. So I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

All i get when iI try to run with just the iboot iso is an error saying to bootable option or device was found how can i fix this?

[adrianobelletti]

Well... on reboot after installation, as like every time I'll boot the VM, iBoot iso is needed, or a "FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted" message apperars. Solution: just leave iBoot in the virtual CD.
Shutting down the vm, freeze the mac with the black screen. Solution: close the VM window shutting down the machine.

I've tried the command to change Monitor resolution, but it didn't work. In the past, with previous VB versione, it worked.
VBoxManage setextradata "VM name" HxV

how would i do this on a mac where i have to use the FN key to do F5? it doesnt do anything when i Fn and F5.

[somethingiguess]

Could you do Mac OS X Puma?
It's my personal favorite version of Mac OS.

[glynandrew]

Ran into an issue... kept having a critical error everytime i switched to the snow lepord disc... went to look at the iboot iso page again and the description says it works for Intel based computers... and that's why i figured it out.. this method won't work for AMD i guess?

[jclgaming]

i get critcal error the vm has been stoppped

[FlashGameReviews]

I have a weird Circle with a line through it (like a no-smoking sign) on my apple logo.

[PavelKraskov]

Thank you for the instruction. During and after installation, mouse movements is inverted on Y axis and quite sluggish. Do you experience any of those?

[OGspektrum]

i got the VM to work almost perfect however idk how to upscale my resolution for this OS
