In this step we will create a user account and install all of the system updates.Ĭreate a snapshot of the disk (think of this as forking the hard drive): qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b 1-fresh.qcow2 2-updates.qcow2 Step 2: User account creation, system updates Mark the disk as read-only to prevent any accidental writes to it (which would cause any snapshots based on this disk to become corrupt): chmod ugo-w 1-fresh.qcow2 When it completes, it will reboot, which will cause QEMU to exit (due to the -no-reboot flag).Īt this point you may (physically) eject the installation DVD (from your host Mac). The install will take quite some time (over an hour).
Quit Disk Utility and the installer should now see the newly formatted partition: "Erase" the disk to partition and format it: When the installer reaches the disk selection screen, there will be no disks to choose from, because the disk has not been partitioned yet: QEMU will exit when the installer reboots. Quit QEMU and create a 127GB QEMU disk: qemu-img create -f qcow2 1-fresh.qcow2 127Gīoot the install DVD with the disk attached and being the installation. If you see the grey Apple logo, the DVD is working correctly with QEMU: iso to a physical DVD and then use -cdrom /dev/disk2, it works.īoot the DVD to verify it works: qemu-system-ppc -L pc-bios -M mac99,via=pmu -m 512 -cdrom /dev/disk2 -boot d iso files of the OS X installation DVD (using -cdrom tiger.iso),īut if you burn that. Note: for some reason qemu does not seem to be able to boot. In this step we will format the disk and perform the initial OS X installation. Note: at some point during this process -cdrom /dev/cdrom seems to have stopped working, but -cdrom /dev/disk2 works. This setup was performed using QEMU 5.0.0 (obtained via brew install qemu). Here are some notes on how I set up an installation of OS X Tiger (10.4)
