cd to the mounted image file, cd System, cd Libary, cd CoreServices, sudo touch ist.

Eject the SL install DVD, and open Terminal. Do a "restore" to copy the SL install DVD to mounted image.
#Mac os x 10.6 iso for vmware mac os#
Then, use Disk Utility in the host to create a new disk image, choose 8.3 GB (DVD+R DL) for size, Mac OS Extended (Journaled) for format, encryption none, partitions CD/DVD, and image format read/write disk image.
I can get SL installed and running, but I'm stuck on one thing.įirst, create a Lion or Mountain Lion guest in Fusion. It's 2013, and I'm on Mountain Lion and my VMware Fusion version is 5. Note that I did not edit the DMG or DVD used for installation. Any attempt I made to reinstall the OS again resulted in receiving message that the OS is not a server version. I suspect that with each VMware update I will probably need to reapply the steps above. Low and behold, it installed without any issues, it reboots/restarts without issues and I even applied all of the updates. I then proceeded to install Snow Leopard from a DMG I created from my Snow Leopard disc, no manipulation of the DMG. That done I had to reapply the steps above. I applied the steps above and when I was done I was prompted to update to the newest update of VMware Fusion 4. So I decided to do the steps above on my MacBook install of VMware Fusion 4 with the Lion 10.7.2 Server that is installed on it. So when I tried to copy the SL virtual machine over and use it there I kept getting messages upon attempts to open it on the MacBook that there wasn't enough RAM and such. My other Mac, a MacBook, just doesn't have those resources.
Well, that virtual machine was used on a Mac Pro with much more RAM and horse power. Every time that I would use it I would need to restore it from a snapshot. But after installing VMware Fusion 4 and then using the same SL virtual machine I was unable to successfully use it as before. I had Snow Leopard installed in VMware Fusion 3 by doing a special install by manipulating the disc image and such. I have two Mac computers, both with Lion 10.7.2 Server from a clean install. You can use the terminal commands above but with this location:Ĭd "/Applications/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/isoimages" VMware Fusion 4 encapsulates the darwin.iso within the main app. Search with Spotlight and with system files doesn't yield any file named darwin.iso. I also am receiving this error with my MacBook with 10.7.2 Lion Server.
