Sierra 10.12 Installer

Years ago I wrote a post for installing Mac OS Yosemite on Virtual Box. A new version of Mac OS X with code name Sierra has been just published therefore I would like to update my post for installing this new version on Virtual Box with the host of Windows 10.

1. Download pre-installed VirtualBox image from following link.
Mirror 1:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B08CMVb2YK_EaTBKNUV2LWVVOUU

Mirror 2:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B52GrzXI5cXhYjduY0V0N0NENW8
For mirror 2, use HjSplit to join the files back. It’s about 5GB. HjSplit is also in Google Drive folder.

2. Extract macOS 10.12 Sierra by TechReviews.rar file to a folder, you’ll get a list of these files

Purchase Mac OS X Lion installer on the Apple Store. When it was still Lion DiskMaker, DiskMaker X had the ability to burn DVDs too. Older versions are available here. Download DiskMaker 2.0.2 ( ZIP file, about 3 MB). NB: this version of DiskMaker X is not able to build a Mavericks installer from Mac OS X 10.6.8.

3. In VirtualBox, create a new machine with following settings

  1. That’s why we have built a signed version of Soundflower which will work on OS X 10.10, 10.11 and the new macOS 10.12 Sierra. Here is the direct download link: soundflower2.0b2.zip. Download the zip and run the contained installer.
  2. Open the disk image, then open the.pkg installer inside the disk image. It installs an app named Install Version Name. Open that app from your Applications folder to begin installing the operating system. MacOS Sierra 10.12 can upgrade El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion, or Lion.

4. For Hard drive, browse to macOS 10.12 Sierra by TechReviews.rar file which can be found in extract folder before.

5. Click Create. Right click on the new machine and select Settings. Be sure that Floppy Disk is disabled.

6. Set number of processors to the max of real processors you have, it’ll speed up the installation. I have a dual core so I set the number of processors to 2.

7. In Display settings, set Video Memory to max 128MB.

7+. Start your cmd and execute following code. Please adjust the script with your installation path of your VirtualBox and the name of your virtual machine (in my case it is macOS Sierra)

8. Start your machine. It will take a while depending on the power of your real CPU and hard disk to set up the installation process.

Sierra

9. When boot finishes, you should land on the welcome screen for setting up Mac OS X. The following images show my sample settings, you can change them if you want.

10. Create account takes a while. Just wait until you’re forwarded to the login screen.

11. Login with your new created account. You’ll be asked for some more settings before going to the main screen of Mac OS X.

12. Done. Enjoy your hackintosh.
