How To Install Mac OS X On PC Using Virtual Box

Apart from Virtual Box, to install Mac OS X, you will require OSX86 ISO. There are tons of torrents, which will fulfill your requirement. But we would recommend you to buy original Mac OS X for safety and security reasons. It is upon your discretion, whether to contravene copyright laws, or be a law-abiding global citizen, by purchasing the copy. After you have got all the requisite items. The steps are as follows:

1. First install Virtual Box on your hardware, then launch the application. Click on ‘New’, at the top left.

Step 1 : Click on 'New' button.

2. When ‘Create New Virtual Machine’ window pops up, give your desired name to this Virtual Machine, in the label field of ‘Name’. From the drop down menu, select ‘Mac OS X’, as your operating system, while the version as ‘Mac OS X Server’. Then, click ‘Next’ and proceed to next step.

Step 2 : Name your VM and selection of OS and its Version.

3.  The next windows that pops up, will ask you how much to sanction ‘RAM amount’. You can drag it as much as you wish, but 1024 MB would be enough. Then proceed to next step by clicking ‘Next’.

Step 3 : Assign RAM amount

4. Now the most crucial part in the whole procedure, allocate the part of your hard disk. Allocation for 20GB is sufficient. I would suggests you not to opt for ‘Dynamic’ option, as many people tend to end up messing.

Step 7 : Select 'Empty' under IDE Controller

7. Click on the ‘Add’ button. Then add your OSX86 ISO, if you have downloaded the torrent. If you have bought the CD, then extract from it the ISO file. ‘Select’ it and then click ‘OK’, and hit the ‘Start’ button on the left side of the main VirtualBox window.

Step 7 : Select ISO image of OSX86

8. As soon as the VM Booting start, hit ‘F8′ and type ‘-v’ at the the boot prompt. This will enable you to detect any shortcomings or if anything goes wrong.

After a while, a pop up window will appear, select your preferred language. Then click ‘Next’.  Then, click ‘Continue and Agree’. And start up ‘Disk Utility’ by going to ‘Utilities’ in the menu bar.
