Mac OS X Mountain Lion Free Download. Click on below button to start Mac OS X Mountain Lion Free Download. This is complete offline installer and standalone setup for Mac OS X Mountain Lion. This would be compatible with both 32 bit and 64 bit windows. For Mac OS X Server virtual machines you install or upgrade VMware Tools using an installer assistant. If you use VMware Fusion or ESXi on an Apple-labed computer, you can create Mac OS X Server (10.5 or 10.6) virtual machines and install VMware Tools. Open Install VMware Tools on the VMware Tools.
Advertisements iHackintosh guide to install OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 in a virtual machine with VMware, Windows 7 host. After spending hundred’s of man hour poking around the “Hackintosh” community and overcome a few quirks along the way, I have successfully installed Mac OS X Lion 10.8 on my Windows 7 Ultimate, VMware 8 workstation. Following are the instructions to install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion in a virtual machine with VMware. Although, the process of making your own Hackintosh from scratch has become easier, there are still many things you need to pay attention, especially for a beginner.
I recommend you to go through the whole article twice or thrice. ————————————————————————————————————————————————— Note: If you like our work, encourage us by sharing this post on Twitter, Facebook, Google + as much as you can. ————————————————————————————————————————————————— ————————————————————————————————————————————————— Note: Note: Note: We need a bootable Mountain Lion.vmdk to install OS X with VMware.
If you don’t know how to create bootable.vmdk, follow our previous Requirements:. Core 2 Duo Processors ( i5, i7 processors are more preferable). Minimum 4 GB RAM. Minimum 40 GB Hard-drive space. A retail copy of Mac OS X Mountain Lion operating system.
Mountain Lion bootable.vmdk Downloads:. @Mark Randal I, too, experienced that problem.
My suspicion is that you (like I) have an IDE CD/DVD “drive” in VMWare (based on the hardware of you HOST OS mine is a Dell790) Anyway, the SOLUTION is: 1) Follow the procedures to create a BOOTABLE.ISO file (that lives on your PC the HOST OS). 2) Edit your Virtual Machine settings, to point your CD/DVD to that.ISO 3) EXIT from VMWare.
4) Modify the.vmx of the Virtual Machine you’re creating, and change ALL “ide0:0” to “scsi0:1” (you might want to make a backup of the.vmx so you can restore it after you’ve created your working Guest OS) 5) Start your Virtual Machine, and Voila It boots AND INSTALLS! As I understand it, the MAC Installer is looking for SCSI devices ONLY – and the IDE CD/DVD drive is, basically, IGNORED by the installer. By creating a bootable.ISO, and faking VMWare into constructing a “pseudo-SCSI CD/DVD” device (albeit pointing to the.ISO), the Installer is now happily seeing the “CD” as a SCSI device, and all is well with the world! I keep getting the same error messages in step 5 and The virtual machine never starts. First I get a window stating: “Software virtualization is incompatible with long mode on this platform.
Disabling long mode. Without long mode support, the virtual machine will not be able to run 64 bit code” After accepting the first window I get a second message: “Mac OS X is not supported with software virtualization. To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports hardware virtualization” I’m new with virtual machines and Mac’s, my platfor is Windows 7 on intel (T5550). Will really appreciate any help to get this working. PD: I have already applied the VMWare unlocker and it seems to run Ok. Followed instructions with no luck. Here is what I did instead.
Made an ISO of the 10.6 install disk, and installed that in VMWare. (10.6 doesn’t require any special processing, just boot and install). Then I updated that to 10.6.8 via the built-in software update. Then I copied over (downloaded) the normal OS X 10.8 installer (from the App Store). Ran that, let it install. After the install the OS will take a LONG time to boot. 30 min – 1 hr.
Once it booted I used KextBeast to install the FakeSMC.Kext. Now the OS boots much faster, although there seems to be like a 10 minute delay after rebooting before mouse and keyboard will work in the virtual machine. Suspending and un-suspending do not have this problem.
So far this seems to be the most solid way I have found to install the OS and get it to the point that it is usable. Hello, I followed all instructions and everything worked as you said. However, I copied the FakeSMC.Kext into the system/library/extensions directly like you mentioned in the 1st post, but when i reboot to load Mountain Lion, I get the apple screen with the spinning wheel for a couple of hours with no completion of the installation. I don’t know if it is hung or stuck, but it want boot into Mountain Lion to complete the install. I powered down the VM and started up again with the same results.

Iknow that you said it could take 30 min to 2hrs on first boot, but if it does not boot in a few hours, you can’t install KextBeast and I already copied the FakeSMC.kext file directly into the extensions directory. Do you have any suggestions to get the installation to complete the Mountain Lion install after the initial installation based on you guide? A couple of things: 1) The small vmx file needs to be upgraded to VMWare Workstation 8 in order to attach the vmdx disk made in the previous tutorial (assuming that vmdx disk was made in Workstation 8, of course).
2) Several places in this tutorial you mention or show screen shots with Mac OS X Lion rather than Mountain Lion – that might confuse people. For example the vmx file is listed as a Lion vmx file, but in the zip file it’s a Mountain Lion vmx file.

But otherwise, great job – thanks for posting this!! Well, where do I start, since you made this as VM 6.x/7.x guest when I create the bootable VMDK in my Lion VM on VMWare 8.x when I attach it to your Guest in RaR file it says it’s too new and cannot be used. So I edited the.vmx file and made it so VM is using VMW v8.x Hardware to be able to boot from created.vmdk file After installation is done as you said I attached it to my Lion to add FakeSMC.kext now it says trying to boot MacOSX Unsuccessful Either there is a flaw in your guide or you, yourself used VMWare Workstation v6.x or 7.x. Unless it HAS to be v6.x or 7.x for it to work I dunno xD Nevertheless I am now trying to install it on a VM I created from scratch Of course making it a v8.x from get go Will report back with my results ?.
