Which means the CPU attempted to write the MSR register 0x8B the instruction wrmsr 0x8b, 0 – and the reason for the crash. Fortunately we can spot in the log we see the following reason for crash: This is a rather tough error to debug as this means the CPU encountered an exception while already reacting on the exception. This will bring us further in the OS X load process – now it crashes with Guru Meditation 1155 (VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT). Note that the second instruction from the script above (setting –cpuidset 00000001) should NOT be executed on AMD CPU. The OS X checks the CPU brand by using CPUID instruction, so we can modify its output in VirtualBox to masquerade our CPU as Intel: More changes are needed.įirst, we need to tell VirtualBox to present its CPU as Intel. However this will not be enough on AMD CPU, where the OS X kernel will halt (Mavericks) or crash (Yosemite) on boot. While VirtualBox does not officially support OS X guests on non-Mac hardware, it is still trivial to do so, as described in the following post.
Installing it on a machine with Intel CPU is not a problem. I have also noted crashes with an Ubuntu Linux 8.04 guest with 3D acceleration in the new Virtualbox 2.2.0 release.Ĭomment:4 Changed 12 years ago by JackFaust comment:5 Changed 5 years ago by aeichnerīefore you proceed: there is NO working solution yet, and I was not able to run unmodified Mac OS X guest on AMD CPU under VirtualBox. When I run Virtualbox on a Windows Vista host on the same Macbook with a Windows 7 guest with 3D acceleration and YSFlight, I don't experience this problem as often.Comment:3 Changed 21 months ago by socratis.

I then change video memory to 16MB and the install was good.

While you’re at it, you may as well reinstall the Guest Additions in your respective VMs after you fix your VirtualBox install.You all need to update VirtualBox for Mac OS, or else you're going to lose to someone else who has initiative to build a virtual machine program for Mac with support for Mac OS 11. Step 3 above is important because it appears that those Kernel Extension files are for older versions of VirtualBox (pre-4.3) that are not cleaned up by a re-install of VirtualBox, and will cause issues with 4.3 (which is the latest version of VirtualBox at the time of this writing). In a shell (Terminal), cd /Library/Extensions and sudo rm -rf VBox*.kext (Re)Download (re)install the respective Extension Pack.ģ. (Re)Download and (re)install the latest version of VirtualBox for OS X.Ģ.

These issues will include anything relating to “Kernel Extension” errors when launching the VirtualBox application or “Kernel Driver Not Installed” errors when launching a Virtual Machine.ġ.

If you’re a Mac user like me, who uses VirtualBox to run guest / virtual Operating Systems within OS X, you will most likely encounter errors with VirtualBox under Mavericks, specifically if you upgrade to OS 10.9 from a pre-existing OS X install where VirtualBox was already installed.
