@Ancalagon Thanks for the help! Got the VM up and running with Apple services. Any idea how to bypass the bootloader screen? I tried disabling the picker in opencore configurator but unfortunately now the VM won't boot.

Thank you for this, I'm having issues with open core configurator saying the version of open core is outdated. If I'm using the method you detailed above do I also need to change the mac serial so it's invalid? Went through this process with my Big Sur vm I have running but that was many moons ago and would like to update to a newer macos.

Could anyone point me to current resources detailing how to get iMessage working? When I set up my Big Sur VM using macinabox many moons ago I got locked out of my apple account after signing in to apple services on the VM. Had to call Apple to unlock. I then used this guide to get iMessage working. I've got a Sonoma VM running now using this updated version of macinabox. Is this method still applicable?

Out of memory errors seem to have ceased after limiting container memory allocation, getting segfault errors now, system has been up for about 2 days. What could be the root cause? tower-diagnostics-20241020-1134.zip

Okay, will try and report back

I've been having general server instability over the past few months. Having to hard reset the server daily to weekly. Recently also noticing out of memory errors. I've attached diagnostics and my syslog. Any insight is appreciated. syslog-192.168.0.150.log tower-diagnostics-20241018-1148.zip

Crashes continue and now getting out of memory errors? Diagnostics and syslog post crash attached. tower-diagnostics-20241018-1148.zip syslog-192.168.0.150.log

I'm having similar issues with server instability. Tried replacing a 5 year old flash drive but no joy. Server has to be hard reset at least once a week. This is lowering the WAF and of course I will be away from home for the next few months and unable to troubleshoot. Syslog attached if anyone could offer any insights. syslog-192.168.0.150.log

Thanks for this plugin and apologies for what might be a simple question: I may have missed this but exactly how do you go about restoring? I tried using the backed up XML but got an NVRAM related error. Do you have to manually move the NVRAM files somewhere? Thanks

If anyone from the future stumbles upon this topic and has everything set up properly but keeps getting the message below when attempting to sign into iMessage To use iMessage with this Mac, contact Apple Support and provide the code below. Customer Code: XXXX-XXXX-XXXX Apple ID: [email protected] Your appleID is probably blacklisted. Your only choice is to call or chat with apple support and let them know you think your apple ID is blocked. It's possible you've had too many attempts under your current serial number which caused your account to be flagged. In my case I kept getting the message even after starting fresh with a new VM install/new serial number/trying a new apple ID/calling apple to unlock my old apple ID. I'm fairly certain my WAN ip address was causing the problem due to too many attempts to login. After doing a DHCP release/renew and getting a new IP address from my ISP and calling apple again to unblock my account I was able to sign into iMessage. Hope that helps someone after hours of pulling my hair out.

Hello All, Looking to upgrade my current rig to an 8th or 9th gen processor. Could anyone recommend a good motherboard that is working with pass through for this? Was looking at z390 but apparently the IOMMU groupings are not the best.

Any luck with this? I'm in the exact same boat as you with home assistant, I read an old post about someone setting up avahi on a small ubuntu VM. May try that later. Edit: No luck enabling avahi in an ubuntu VM. Not sure if there's a solution. I ended up setting up the cast node in node-red to handle sending announcements to speakers around the house.

you need to run the command mentioned from a terminal window, which you should be able to launch from your unraid main page or by using ssh/telnet to login to your server.

Log attached. Pi-hole admin console is accessable at my server's IP address and show's active but no ads are being filtered. Set primary DNS on my router to point to the server. Any help is appreciated. log.txt

Can't seem to get this working. Have the docker running in host mode (won't ruin in other network modes). I can access the admin page but pihole doesn't seem to be accepting dns requests. No activity is noted in the admin page. I have dual nics on my rig so not sure if that is causing problems? Thanks for your hard work!
