Mac OS X El Capitan Black Screen

Post by Ajinlee »

Hi everyone,

I was trying to set up El Capitan on v5 virtual box and followed this guide word for word without any problem: [indirect WareZ linked deleted by mod].

But after copying and pasting each line of code for cmd as shown in the guide, I get a black screen when I run the machine... It says it is running but just shows me a black screen. Not sure what happened...

I would post a log but it is over the size limit...

You're not using Apple hardware, are you? OSX installs are only supported on Apple hardware. See: Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest.

PS. I deleted the 2nd almost identical question on the same subject.
