Hi,I'm running an older version of Mac OS, 10.11.6 'El Capitan', and triedupgrading from WSJT-X 2.0.1 (which works perfectly) to 2.1.0, but thenewer version does not start.Looking into this, if I run 2.0.1 in FT8 mode, quit, then start 2.1.0, Isee a crash report (available at).However, if I run 2.0.1 in WSPR mode, quit, then start 2.1.0, it starts OK.If I then change 2.1.0 to FT8, it crashes. (I don't want to try changingto FT4, in case I can't get my 2.0.1 to start up again).Seems like with El Capitan / 2.1.0, starting in FT8, or changing to FT8causes a crash.Is this a known problem? Is there a workaround?Kind regards,Matt Gumbley M0CUV.

License violations[edit]

According to the macOS and OS X software license agreement[1], macOS should only be installed on Apple Mac devices. Neither the editors of this book nor Wikibooks have any liability over the installation of macOS or OS X guests on VirtualBox or any other violations of the software license.

This is against the EULA of apple, doing this article IS considered piracy.

Installation script[edit]

The following installation script:

  • ..is free and open-source
  • ..requires only VirtualBox with its Extension Pack and dependencies that can be easily installed in a single command with most open-source package managers
  • ..downloads macOS Catalina, Mojave and High Sierra directly from Apple's servers
  • ..installs macOS without modifying the original Apple binaries and without third-party bootloaders
  • ..creates a VM that is compatible with OpenCore and can be exported (with manual modifications) to KVM/QEMU for near-native performance
  • ..runs on Linux, Windows (WSL, Cygwin), and macOS

Manual installation[edit]

The manual installation requires access to the Mac App Store through an existing installation of macOS.

Create ISO Installation Media[edit]

  1. Download the macOS Installer file from the App Store[2] (OS X El Capitan and Sierra is downloadable from Apple's website).
  2. When download finishes, find the app, right-click and select 'Show Package Contents'.
  3. Inside the sub-folder Contents/SharedSupport you will find a InstallESD.dmg file.
  4. Open 'Disk Utility'
  5. Choose Images > Convert
  6. In the window, choose the InstallESD.dmg to convert and the disk type to be 'DVD/CD-R master for export'. Also choose the name for installer disk and the final destination. Then click 'Convert'.
  7. After conversion completes, you will see a .cdr file in your destination folder.
  8. Open 'Terminal'
  9. Enter hdiutil convert /Your/Path/To/YourCdrFile.cdr -format UDTO -o /Your/Path/To/macOSInstaller.iso
  10. Check destination folder. This is your file for installation in VirtualBox. There should be a .iso file extension.

Installation in VirtualBox[edit]

  1. Open VirtualBox. Click 'new'
  2. Type the name for virtual machine and Mac OS X for type. Choose your version (if you have Mojave or Catalina, choose Mac OS X (64 bit).
