By creating a bootable.ISO, and faking VMWare into constructing a “pseudo-SCSI CD/DVD” device (albeit pointing to the.ISO), the Installer is now happily seeing the “CD” as a SCSI device, and all is well with the world!Ģ) Several places in this tutorial you mention or show screen shots with Mac OS X Lion rather than Mountain Lion – that might confuse people. 4) Modify the.vmx of the Virtual Machine you’re creating, and change ALL “ide0:0” to “scsi0:1” (you might want to make a backup of the.vmx so you can restore it after you’ve created your working Guest OS) 5) Start your Virtual Machine, and Voila It boots AND INSTALLS! As I understand it, the MAC Installer is looking for SCSI devices ONLY – and the IDE CD/DVD drive is, basically, IGNORED by the installer. 2) Edit your Virtual Machine settings, to point your CD/DVD to that.ISO 3) EXIT from VMWare. My suspicion is that you (like I) have an IDE CD/DVD “drive” in VMWare (based on the hardware of you HOST OS mine is a Dell790) Anyway, the SOLUTION is: 1) Follow the procedures to create a BOOTABLE.ISO file (that lives on your PC the HOST OS).
