When running the macOS Ventura installation, at the end I get this error:

Longer Log:

Running in Windows 11 Clean Docker installation.

[pedroreglero]

Installation works fine for macOS Monterey

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

me too

[singpolyma]

yes, I get this same

[meloandrefilipe]

I'm getting the same issue here, already tried on Windows 11 with wsl, last version of Arch Linux and now Ubuntu 23.04. All with the same issue.

[djpfs]

same error here, i'm using ubuntu 22.04

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

use offline install maby be success.

1: download macos 13, https://mrmacintosh.com/macos-ventura-13-full-installer-database-download-directly-from-apple/

2: clone this repo, https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM

3: make ventura img by sh create_dmg_ventura.sh

4: repace BaseSystem.img to Ventura.dmg in OpenCore-Boot.sh

5: ./OpenCore-Boot.sh to install, may be alos fail, just retry

#!/usr/bin/env bash

@LiushuiXiaoxia one needs to already be on MacOS to use hdiutil and thus the create_dmg_ventura.sh script

@LiushuiXiaoxia one needs to already be on MacOS to use hdiutil and thus the create_dmg_ventura.sh script

that is the problem. you can install the old version first, such as macos Monterey

[singpolyma]

I tried that, it installs but doesn't boot #668

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

I tried that, it installs but doesn't boot #668

I mean, you install macos Monterey at first.

then, download OSX-KVM to create ventura.dmg (on montery )

copy ventura.dmg to linux os,

finally to install ventura on linux os (use osx-kvm, not docker-osx)

I already tried that and it gets past that point but still doesn't boot.

I already tried that and it gets past that point but still doesn't boot.

I tried and it was okay,

First you need to get mac_hdd_ng.img by osx-kvm

The second is to launch docker by Docker-OSX，such as

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e MASTER_PLIST_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:naked

Maybe this step is a failure because the osx-kvm in sickcodes/docker-osx:naked is old

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

osx-kvm in sickcodes/docker-osx:naked is earlier version

1. copy origin Launch.sh from naked

docker cp {containerId}:/home/arch/OSX-KVM/Launch.sh  ./LaunchReal.sh

2. Add Launch.sh in local

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/arch

# 方法1
git clone --depth 1 --recursive https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM.git OSX-KVM2

# git add .
# git reset --hard HEAD
# git fetch --depth 1
# git reset --hard origin/HEAD

echo "use new opencore"
cp ../LaunchReal.sh ./LaunchReal.sh
sh LaunchReal.sh

3. restart docker such as (replace origin Launch.sh)

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \

Thanks for the help, I get a black screen when booting. Can you do a complete explanation on how to run that? I think I might be missing steps.

Updating to Ventura from Moajve I can't boot

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

I use this project as the ios ci system, so I don't need a gui.

Updating to Ventura from Moajve I can't boot

just reboot ?

The same happens every time I boot, it gets stuck there.

you can not upgrade from Moajve (hackintosh) to Ventura,

Iook this

ni need create ventura .img in Moajve (macos). and then use osx-kvm do upgrading (linux).

I downloaded the Ventura installer inside Mojave, used the create_dmg_ventura.sh script and got the Ventura.dmg file back to linux. But when I run "dmg2img -i BaseSystem.dmg BaseSystem.img" I get "ERROR: dmg image is corrupted"

you did not need to convert dmg to img

Hello

I am trying to follow the steps, I was able to create image in OSX-KVM and I am lost the these steps, first step I could fire up naked container, but How to perform the second step, Could you please elaborate the step 2, add launcher.sh locally? Appreciate it. Thanks

just create file Launch.sh

Thanks for your reply...

I am just stuck at create file Launch.sh For step2 , it only create LaunchReal.sh, maybe I missed step to create the file?

That leads to the step 3 -v "${PWD}/Launch.sh:/home/arch/OSX-KVM/Launch.sh"
Current Folder, there is no Launch.sh -v "${PWD}/LaunchReal.sh:/home/arch/LaunchReal.sh" \

Also Step 3 , restart Docker, following command will create a new container docker run -it \

Any suggestions? Appreciate your help and time. Thanks!

[LiushuiXiaoxia]

1. Linux 系统上创建一个空的文件夹，如 test-osx

2. 使用 终端进入test-osx 文件夹

3. 正常启动Docker实例，然后从实例中复制 Launch.sh 到本地 Linux 机器上，然后重命名为 ./LaunchReal.sh docker cp {containerId}:/home/arch/OSX-KVM/Launch.sh ./LaunchReal.sh

4. 在test-osx 文件中，使用终端新建一个 Launch.sh 的文件，并把以下内容复制到文件中

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/arch
git clone --depth 1 --recursive https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM.git OSX-KVM2
cd OSX-KVM2
echo "use new opencore"
cp ../LaunchReal.sh ./LaunchReal.sh
sh LaunchReal.sh

5. 按照以下命令重新启动docker

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e MASTER_PLIST_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist \
    -v "${PWD}/Launch.sh:/home/arch/OSX-KVM/Launch.sh" \

./OpenCore-Boot.sh

Thanks for the detailed information, I was able to follow your instruction to boot up the system. Thanks again!

[stonemaster]

Some notes on how I got Ventura running locally:

1. I used the OSX-KVM repository following the documentation to install Ventura. I had to use the following tweaks in the provided OpenCore-Boot.sh to get things running: a. set ALLOCATED_RAM=8192 b. set CPU_CORES=1, CPU_SOCKETS=1 and CPU_THREADS=1 (yep it's going to be slow) c. and set the CPU to Haswell-noTSX (Penryn is the default)

For some reason in that setup I never could increase the number of cores withouth the VM crashing (or hanging). So I tried it with sickcodes naked image where it works without problems:

2. Copy resulting mac_hdd_ng.img use nakedinstructions to mount it as per documentation. a. additionally set environment variable CPU=Haswell-noTSX

Works on fine on my machine(tm)!

EDIT: A few runs later I found out that when my machine booted and had an unstable tsc, multi-core support wouldn't work. Check sudo dmesg -T | grep -i -e tsc -e clocksource which should give clocksource: Switched to clocksource tsc. Otherwise a cold boot might help.
