Guru Meditation while trying to install Leopard/Mountain Lion

Post by xXxFTM2XxX »

Hello.

I've recently wanted to install Yosemite, but I changed my mind because Yosemite took up so much memory, and I decided to switch to Leopard, but then I had the opportunity of trying Mountain Lion. But everytime I start up from each disc image, the Guru Meditation window would come up, now I changed every setting I could, but still could not get it to work. So if anyone knows how to fix this little misunderstanding, I can get OS X to successfully run on my VM.

Thanks!

Post the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click on the guest in the Main Manager then click show log. Save and post as an attachment. Compress if it is too large to post.

How do I compress it?

It seems it doesn't work when I post the real file located in my log.

It depends... What's your host OS?

OSX installs are only supported on Apple hardware. See: Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest.
