HI all, Another newbie question here: Is there a specific way to install multiple OSX VM's using Macinabox? What would you need to change in the Docker settings in order to avoid overwriting or updating an existing VM? My goal is to get 4 separate Mac OS VM's running on the same server. Many thanks in advance!

Awesome! It's now showing up with the correct Ram Too, thanks a lot for your help guys!

Awesome! I pasted in: <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-3.1'>hvm</type> <loader readonly='yes' type='pflash'>/mnt/user/domains/MacinaboxHighSierra/ovmf/OVMF_CODE.fd</loader> <nvram>/mnt/user/domains/MacinaboxHighSierra/ovmf/OVMF_VARS.fd</nvram> </os> And now it boots! But despite selecting the CPU and RAM configuration, I still only get the following showing up in the VM: What am I missing? Many thanks!

Hi all, First of all I'm very new to unRaid. I'm having problems getting a high sierra VM to run properly. I've followed the steps in Spaceinvader One's excellent video to the letter. Everything works except after adding more CPU's and RAM to the VM (and pasting the necessary XML etc.) the VM boots but with the apple logo off to the top left and then to an indecipherable screen. There is definitely a graphics problem. If I paste the XLM code back before I changed the CPU and RAM, it works fine (but very slow). Here is the current XML: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'> <name>MacinaboxHighSierra</name>

been at this for hours... Many thanks! Here is a screen shot of how the VM currently boots:

Thanks for replying Jonathanmn. In the meantime I found this thread: Where a guy ended up upgrading the Adaptec Firmware and got it working in HBA mode (card bios setting). Hopefully that works. If I upgrade to a LSI 9300-8I (which is 12Gbps) do you know if I need to change out the SAS846A Backplane too?

HI all, I'm a new user to Unraid. I just wanted to run a system compatibility check past anyone who is willing to help. Here are the system specs: Supermicro SuperChassis CSE-848 24-Bay Server 4 x Intel Xeon Eight-Core E5-4650 2.70GHz Processors 256GB DDR3 Ram Motherboard X9QRI-F+ rev 1.02 Backplane Part Number: SAS846A 1 x Adaptec ASR-72405 RAID Controller With Battery 1 x Supermicro Dual Port 10Gb/s Ethernet Network Card AOC-STGN-i2S 2 x 1620W Power Supplies PWS-1K62P-1R Can anyone confirm if all these parts are compatible? Many thanks!
