This open source wizard will help you install your MacOS virtual machine quickly!

Hello, I’m JackTian.

Installing Windows and Linux is the most familiar of the necessary skills.

Macos-guest-virtualbox.sh is a very useful open source script to help you quickly install macOS on VirtualBox.

Macos-guest -virtualbox.sh is an open source Bash script that helps you quickly install the MacOS operating system and download the unmodified MacOS installation files directly from the Apple server.

On macOS, Windows subsystem for Linux and centOS 7.

During installation, you only need to press Enter less than 10 times as prompted by the script, and no interactive operation is required with the VM.

Currently supports macOS Catalina (10.15), Mojave (10.14), and High Sierra (10.13).

ICloud, iMessage, and other connected Apple services require a valid device name, serial number, etc.

To use these services and other legitimate Apple parameters, you can set them in NVRAM by editing a script.

By default, the script allocates 80GB of target virtual disk storage.

During the initial installation, the target virtual disk storage space on the host is about 20GB. After the installation, the storage space may increase.

You can also set the storage/memory size, number of cpus, resolution, etc.

Due to the macOS VIRTUAL machine installed, limited by the hardware and VirtulBox’s own product functions, some functions cannot be supported, such as USB device support, audio support, FileVault boot password prompt support and other functions.

Of course, if you haven’t used macOS yet, this open source script will help you solve the problem. If you are interested, you can try it out.
