Using Virtualbox

  1. Download the Yosemite Zone(YZ) iso
  2. Create a virtualbox of type MacOS/MacOS X (64 bit)
  3. For Settings:
    1. System/Motherboard
      1. Enable IO APIC checked
      2. Enable EFI (special OSes only) unchecked
      3. Hardware Clock in UTC Time unchecked
    2. System/Processor
      1. Use at least 2 processors
      2. Ensure Enable PAE/NX is checked
    3. System/Acceleration

    5. Storage
      1. Click the CD icon and then specify your YZ ISO file
  4. Start the box and follow the installation instructions

2 Minute Hang

When the installation gets to 2 minutes remaining, it will probably hang. Ensure that the disks have mostly stopped spinning and then force shutdown the box. Then follow these instructions:

  1. Eject the YZ CD so that the box will boot from the hard drive
  2. Start the box, and at the boot screen, type -s -v -x
  3. Once the box starts up, you'll be at a bash prompt. Type /sbin/fsck -fy
  4. Once that finished, type /sbin/mount -uw /
  5. CD to /.OSInstallSandboxPath/Scripts
  6. CD to Hackintosh.Zone.Post-Script*
  7. Type ./postinstall and wait for the script to complete
  8. Type exit to complete the installation

Increase the VM Resolution

From a CMD prompt on your host, type the following command:

"c:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage" setextradata "Mac OS" "CustomVideoMode1" "2560x1080x32"

You may need to adjust the path to vboxmanage, the VM name (Mac OS), or your desired resolution.
