Installing Snow Leopard and Lion as Guests.

Post by aburrow »

I'm currently running Snow Leopard Server on an iMac and would like to run Snow Leopard and Lion as Guests for testing purposes.

So far I've had no luck at all.

Has anyone else tried to run these OS's as Guests? If so what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

"no luck at all" is not very informative regarding what you've tried. Picking a specific case, describing the VM properly, and posting a VM log file showing any error - would be useful.

When I try to install Snow Leopard Server using the default settings of Type "Mac OS X", Version "Mac OS X" the install keeps looping. It gets to the "Extensions.mkext" sits there loading for a while then restarts.

Vbox Log file attached.
