Though the OS is a bit non-user friendly, Apple has been trying to make the OS more user friendly by making the OS simpler. Since doing this, I’ve also upgraded to version 5 of VirtualBox.Mac OSes are sophisticated and complex making them powerful and reliable. I had to make the drive larger to 30G to continue.Īlso, along the way, I upped the RAM and the specific machine type as well once I had them up and running. After going through all of the upgrades from Snow Leopard, Mavericks to Yosemite, when you get to El Capitan there is not enough space in a 20G hard drive. Just as a side note, make sure you start with the hard drive above 20G. Then when you finally get El Capitan running, it’s entirely black. Below is Yosemite after it’s first boot to the upgrade. This isn’t anything to worry about though.Ībove is Mavericks starting up. When it does start up, it’ll look a little weird with all oft he text messages showing. Good luck, and hopefully you won’t get any kernel panics like I did initially. Under Networking once I got to Mavericks, to be able to browse the network, I needed to change the Networking to “Bridged Networking”, otherwise it creates it’s own little VPN kind of thing between the host and the VM.Īnyway, the rest of the settings are whatever. I hope you get it working. I’ve also added a SharedDisk.vdi so that the multiple installs can share files with each other. I just chose 20G of a VDI type (but it shouldn’t really matter I would think what type). When installing you will obviously need a big virtual drive. Video Memory: 16mb ( Apparently this is important for installation too) Hardware Clock in UTC: I didn’t worry about this…Įxtended Features: Enabled PAE/NX checked Mouse won’t workĮxtended Features: Enable I/O APIC checked

Once the basic install has been done, swap this order (as shown in the image). Shared Clipboard: Guest to Host ( These may cause issues when first trying to install)ĭrag’n’Drop: Host to Guest ( These may cause issues when first trying to install)īase Memory: 2048MBs ( Apparently this amount is important on the initial install)īoot Order: CD/DVD FIRST then Hard Disk.

Snapshot Folder: What ever what was default Version: Mac OS x 10.6 Snow Leopard (64-bit) (Maybe this will change as the upgrades continue. I have only screen captured the screens that I know are relevant to getting this work. When you have made the edit, you can continue on getting the install to work.

(I’m got a few as they either came from the computers I bought, or the OS upgrade disks I bought)

This is not for piracy, but for testing environments to see if software actually runs correctly and doesn’t break!įor example, for the older Final Cut Pro 7 application suite, Motion 4 won’t work in Yosemite or above. This way, for testing purposes, I will have a: Snow Leopard, Mavericks, Yosemite and an El Capitan installation in a virtual environment.

I’m taking a snapshot or cloning each system as I go, and proceeding to upgrade each new install on the way. To achieve this, I’m doing it through the OS upgrade path. So now, I’m going to test it properly this time.
#WHAT IS THE LATEST VERSION OF MAC OS X SNOW LEOPARD UPDATE#
I want to do this to try out El Capitan, because when I updated to the last major update to Yosemite, it broke my Aperture installation. I have finally got Snow Leopard running on my Mac Pro that is running Mavericks in a virtual environment. Well, this has been a long term thing that I’ve wanted to do for a very long time, but have never actually succeeded – until today.
