![]() Open your VirtualBox installation and click on New. You can find it at forum, although you will have to be registered in the forum to download it. Legacy 10.6.8 kernel – the same as previous, if you are updating to 10.6.8 you will need a 10.6.8 kernel. Mac OS X 10.6.8 update combo v1.1 – if your retail DVD is not the latest version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8), download the combo file directly from Apple. If you have an Intel i3, i5 or i7 CPU, download “iBoot Ivy Bridge 1.0.0″ or latest. For Core 2 Duo Intel processors you should download “iBoot 3.3.0″. If you have a Pentium 4 or another single core processor, I think you have to download “iBoot Legacy 2.7.2″. You can download it from here (tonymacx86 forum – you have to register). IBoot – for booting up Snow Leopard on the Virtual machine, since the retail DVD iso’s are not capable of booting themselves.

With this method your Mac OS virtual machine will be more reliable, and you will be able to do basic things from the Operating System such as reboots, shutdowns and the simple "About my Mac". In this post I will show another way of installing Snow Leopard in Virtualbox, but using the EFI method. Unfortunately that method causes a lot of kernel panics and is not reliable because sometimes it boots successfully, sometimes it doesn't. Yesterday I've published a post on how to install Mac OS X – Snow Leopard - in Virtualbox 4.2 using external boot loaders. ![]() Installing Mac OS X on Virtualbox 4.2 EFI Method ![]()
