Graphic tutorial on installing Mac system in virtual machine under win10

1. Download the virtual machine version 15.5.1

I downloaded the latest version directly from the official website, so I can install Mac10.14 and Catalina . The previous version 15.0 failed to install Catalina. Install VM and wait for the installation to complete.

2. Download Unlocker 3.0

Unlocker is a tool for unlocking virtual machines. Without unlocking, you will not be able to find the Mac installation option. Run win-install and wait for it to complete.

3. Install Mac system

This process is directly shown in the figure:

4. Install tools

tools is an extension file of VM that can realize full-screen system in virtual machine and drag and drop files between physical machines.

Next, double-click the Install VMware Tools icon. Next, follow the steps to install it. Until the completion interface appears.

5. Make an installation image of the official version of macOS Catalina

.cdr or .iso file Open App Store on a Mac , search for “Catalina” , and download the macOS 10.15.1 Catalina installer

After the download is complete, in the Mac's [Finder], open [Applications] - [Utilities] - [Terminal]

Enter the following commands in sequence to complete the preparation of macOS Catalina official version installation image .cdr or .iso file

# 1. Create a dmg disk image hdiutil create -o /tmp/Catalina -size 8500m -volname Catalina -layout SPUD -fs HFS+J
# 2. Mount the dmg on macOS hdiutil attach /tmp/Catalina.dmg -noverify -mountpoint /Volumes/Catalina
# 3. Create the macOS Catalina installation packagesudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Catalina.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Catalina --nointeraction
# 4. Uninstall Catalina installation disk hdiutil detach /volumes/Install\ macOS\ Catalina
# 5. Convert the dmg image file to a .cdr image file (VMware supports .cdr file installation, so you can directly copy the .cdr file to the Windows system to install the macOS 10.15.1 Catalina virtual machine)
hdiutil convert /tmp/Catalina.dmg -format UDTO -o ~/Desktop/Catalina.cdr
# 6. Convert the .cdr image file to the .iso image file mv ~/Desktop/Catalina.cdr ~/Desktop/Catalina.iso

Copy Catalina.cdr or Catalina.iso to the hard disk of the computer where macOS Catalina virtual machine is to be installed.

Sometimes during installation, a message will appear stating that the copy of the macOS Mojave application is corrupted and cannot be used to install macOS .

Some are stuck at the Apple Logo interface during installation (it should be noted that this is caused by the low version of the ordered VM)

Solution: First, shut down the virtual machine; then, [Edit virtual machine settings] - [Options] - [Guest operating system] change to [ Microsoft Windows(W) ] - [Version] select [ Window 10 x64 ] - [OK]

Start the virtual machine again and enter the installation interface normally.
