Hi all,
I try to install Ventura on a Mac mini from 2018. The initial start terminates with a critical error (see screenshot).
Any idea what I could try?
I already red that Ventura 13.2 is needed on virtualBox 7.0.6. But this wasn't it. Ii can install the sam .iso on the same machine with Parallels.
Thanks
Simon

That is correct. VirtualBox 7.0.6 has a problem loading EFI boot files on macOS Ventura 13.3 and later. See Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3saimens wrote: I already red that Ventura 13.2 is needed on virtualBox 7.0.6. But this wasn't it. ...
Your log shows you are running Ventura 13.3, which explains your crash.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Is the limitation regarding the guest and / or the host?
The host is 13.3.1 The guest ist 13.2 (I hope at least ...)granada29 wrote:Your log shows you are running Ventura 13.3, which explains your crash.

I guess you have not read the thread linked in my earlier post where this is made quite clear.saimens wrote:Is the limitation regarding the guest and / or the host?
The problem is caused by changes made by Apple to their hypervisor engine on Ventura 13.3
Oracle developers are implementing a workaround which will hopefully be available in the next release of VirtualBox.
You have 2 problems.
1. Your host system (macOS 13.3+) has a known problem running VirtualBox 7.0.6
2. The other is that (to my knowledge anyway), no-one has yet successfully managed to get Ventura to run as a guest under any version of VirtualBox. Maybe you can crack that one?
