Running Mac OS X on Virtual Box with a DMG

Post by bobalandi »

Hi, I recently got a dmg image of my Mac OS X dvd and I was wondering how/if I'd be able to use it to run Mac OS X as a Virtual Machine on my Linux Box. Since DMG's aren't supported by virtual box, I tried converting it to an ISO using DMGExtractor, but when booted up the VM with the ISO it said there was no bootable media. Does anyone know how I would get it to work?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry about that, even for the 3.2 beta?
