Yosemite using a bootcamp as a VM
Posted: 8. Jul 2015, 07:33
Hello, I apologize if this was covered somewhere else but I have be trying to find an answer for 2 hour now and getting no where.
I am running OSX 10.10.3 and have bootcamp set up with Windows 7 and want to set up virtual box to use the bootcamp as the VM. I have read through and tried all the walkthroughs I can find but getting stuck.
Here is where I am at.
My Bootcamp drive is disk0s4
So I ran this to create the Virtual disk
Changed the permissions on disk0s4 and unmounted with this '
When I run the Machine It just load to Black screen with white text saying "error loading operating system"
I have tried every setting in Virtual box and nothing seems to work
Verified by booting in to the Bootcamp that that OS does boot
I have been doing searches for a few hours and nothing helpful,
