According to other reports the virtualization of El Capitan worked well obviously after having created the iso file successfully. I have read other postings in this board but didn’t find a real solution for me. There were several reports that El Capitan is not well supported by Virtualbox and another reason for problems should be that Apple changed MBR to GPT. With this there is another problem, because the virtualized hard disk isn’t recognized just at the beginning of the installation and so this installation fails too. Unfortunately I have an installation dvd of Snow Leopard only. Perhaps I did.n’t quite get it, because the edition of this file failed.Īnother solution was reported to start the installation with Yosemite or Mavericks and then after successful installation start an upgrade process. I followed the hints like to change the chipset to PIIX3 or tried to edit the startup.nsh for to add some recommended published lines. Tried with lower versions of Virtualbox too. Installed Virtualbox latest version (4.3.16) and couldnt get MAC OS X 64-bit version while creating new virtual machine option. In several postings I have found a script to create El Capitan.iso.īut the installation process stops showing the 2.0 shell within less than a second. Moreover, I am trying to install MAC OS X using Virtualbox in my Windows 8.1 OS (64-bit) machine and stuck with the following problem. I want to install El Capitan in Virtualbox 5.0.16 for testing use.El Capitan is my host system too. In case you encounter problems following this guide, feel free to use the comment sections.Hello, But considering the usability of the OS, it is worth the time. Installing Mac OS X El Capitan on PC using VirtualBox will break some sweat.
