In most network deployments, generated MAC addresses are a good approach. However, you might need to set a static MAC address for a virtual machine adapter with unique value.
The following cases show when you might set a static MAC address:
Virtual Machines. We recommend using a virtual machine program, ideally Parallels or VMWare Fusion, to run Windows applications on a Mac without rebooting.For maximum performance, which is particularly necessary for gaming, we recommend dual-booting Windows with Boot Camp instead. Each virtual machine provides its own virtual hardware, including CPUs, memory, hard drives, network interfaces, and other devices. The virtual hardware is then then mapped to the real hardware on the physical machine which saves costs by reducing the need for physical hardware systems along with the associated maintenance costs that go with it, plus reduces power and cooling demand. Virtual machines allow you to run an operating system in an app window on your desktop that behaves like a full, separate computer. You can use them play around with different operating systems, run software your main operating system can’t, and try out apps in a safe, sandboxed environment. Typically, the virtualization platform will generate a new, random MAC address for each virtual network interface at creation (depending on the software, you might override that random MAC with one of your chosing). How to Configure macOS High Sierra VM in VirtualBox. The Oracle VM VirtualBox program is a free and constantly evolving program. You can run Apple MacOS operating system on Windows operating systems using VirtualBox. Creating a new VM on VirtualBox is easy and simple. But when creating a Mac OS virtual machine with VirtualBox you may need to change some settings.
- Virtual machine adapters on different physical hosts share the same subnet and are assigned the same MAC address, causing a conflict.
- Ensure that a virtual machine adapter always has the same MAC address.
By default, VMware uses the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI)
00:50:56
for manually generated addresses, but all unique manually generated addresses are supported. Note: Make sure that no other non-VMware devices use addresses assigned to VMware components. For example, you might have physical servers in the same subnet, which use
11:11:11:11:11:11
, 22:22:22:22:22:22
as static MAC addresses. The physical servers do not belong to the vCenter Server inventory, and vCenter Server is not able to check for address collision. < VirtualBox | Setting up a Virtual Machine

License violations[edit]
According to the macOS and OS X software license agreement[1], macOS should only be installed on Apple Mac devices. Neither the editors of this book nor Wikibooks have any liability over the installation of macOS or OS X guests on VirtualBox or any other violations of the software license.
I love the plum tone to it and this is my new favorite lipstick. https://betaever331.weebly.com/blog/d-for-danger-mac.
This is against the EULA of apple, doing this article IS considered piracy.
Installation script[edit]
![For For](/uploads/1/3/3/8/133863221/292301882.jpg)
The following installation script: Neat scanner software for mac.
- Doesn't require a ready-made bootable installation ISO
- Downloads macOS Catalina, Mojave, and High Sierra directly from the Apple Store servers
- Runs on Linux and Windows (WSL, Cygwin)
- Uses only open-source software, no custom bootloader, and original Apple files directly from Apple
- Has easily-installed dependencies: VirtualBox>6.0 with Extension Pack, bash>4, coreutils, unzip, wget, dmg2img
Manual installation[edit]
The manual installation requires access to the Mac App Store through an existing installation of macOS.
Create ISO Installation Media[edit]
- Download the macOS Installer file from the App Store[2].
- When download finishes, find the app, right-click and select 'Show Package Contents'.
- Inside the sub-folder Contents/SharedSupport you will find a InstallESD.dmg file.
- Open 'Disk Utility'
- Choose Images > Convert
- In the window, choose the InstallESD.dmg to convert and the disk type to be 'DVD/CD-R master for export'. Also choose the name for installer disk and the final destination. Then click 'Convert'.
- After conversion completes, you will see a .cdr file in your destination folder.
- Open 'Terminal'
- Enter
hdiutil convert /Your/Path/To/YourCdrFile.cdr -format UDTO -o /Your/Path/To/macOSInstaller.iso
- Check destination folder. This is your file for installation in VirtualBox. There should be a .iso file extension.
Installation in VirtualBox[edit]
- Open VirtualBox. Click 'new'
- Type the name for virtual machine and OS X for type. Choose your version.
- Select memory size.
- Select 'Create Virtual Disk Now'
- Choose VDI for format.
- Select storage name and size. The size should be at least 32 GB.
- Go to 'Settings'
- Go to 'Storage' Tab
- In the SATA controller, click 'Add Optical Disk'.
- Insert the .iso file.
- Go to 'Display' tab.
- Set video memory to maximum value.
- Quit 'Settings'
- Boot by clicking 'Start'.
- When it boots, you will see some data being displayed.
- This part needs clarification - UEFI Interactive Shell loads, but nothing happens. If you use the command 'exit' you can shift to the EFI menu, but changing the settings doesn't seem to affect the progress of the UEFI Interactive Shell, which stops at the Shell> prompt.
- After a while, you will need to choose the language for installation. Choose your own language.
- Then you will be asked where to install the OS X.
- On the upper-left corner, you will see a 'Utilities' button. Click it and select 'Disk Utility'.
- You will see a window with different storages on the left. Choose 'VBOX HARDDISK Media'. Note: You may have to select View/View All Devices
- Erase the Storage by clicking the 'Erase' button on the top.
- You will be prompted to enter the name for the storage. Enter your desired name and continue.
- Wait for the process to complete. Then quit Disk Utility.
- You will find a new storage media, which is like a hard disk. Choose that storage for the installation of OS X to install.
- After installation completes, the virtual machine will automatically shut down. Go to 'Settings'.
- Go to 'Storage' section to eject the .iso file.
- Boot virtual machine again.
- Choose system language.
- Choose allow location or not.
- You will be asked to enter your Apple ID. Even if you have an Apple ID, do not enter now.
- Accept EULA of OS X
- Restore Time Machine Backups (if you have)
- You will see the main page of OS X, open App Store.
- Enter your Apple ID and sign in..
