December 29, 201510 yr I've been trying to get the Nvidia webdriver to work but I won't work. The Nvidia driver page mentions the driver is for "Mac Pro 5,1 (2010), Mac Pro 4,1 (2009) and Mac Pro 3,1 (2008) users". Following this guide I the resulting model identifier is iMac (Summer 2001). I suspect the Nvidia webdriver won't work because of the wrong model identifier. Every guide on the net mentions smbios.plist in the /Extra folder, except I don't have that folder. How do I change the model identifier?
December 30, 201510 yr Author I've been trying to get the Nvidia webdriver to work but I won't work.

How do I change the model identifier? You should have created the /Extra folder if you followed my guide? Then you just put the correct smbios.plist into that folder so see if it works. Be careful though some smbios will cause the VM to have trouble booting.
December 30, 201510 yr Succes, I've added org.chameleon.boot.plist and the iMac14,2 smbios.plist. org.chameleon.boot.plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Timeout</key> <string>5</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>PCIRootUID</key> <string>1</string> <key>KernelBooter_kexts</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>nvda_drv</key> <string>1</string> </dict> However, the nvda_drv setting isn't working. I have to add it manually as a boot flag during boot.
December 30, 201510 yr You should have created the /Extra folder if you followed my guide? Yeah, sorry about that. I did follow the guide but I directly used passthrough and somehow I skipped that part as it was right below the absolute mouse positioning. Anyway, thanks a bunch. Now I've got an updated 10.11.2 working with a GTX 960 passthrough and a 4 display setup (incl a 4K display). The 4K display doubles for gaming on the other VM with a GTX 980Ti. All working fine. Great holiday project.
December 31, 201510 yr I got the same error! have google this error.... It has to do with the graphics driver.... maybe some new kext that do this ? //Peter How does this look? npci=0x3000 PCIRoot=0 PCIRootUID=1 cpus=1 maxmem=2048 USBBusFix=Yes nv_disable=1 GraphicsEnabler=No IGPEnabler=No "Graphics Mode"="1024x768x32@60" UseKernelCache=No -v About the only thing I found.

December 31, 201510 yr Can You install 10.11.2 with these settings ? I have tested several combination but installation stall after "Bluetooth -- completed ". Anyone that manage to get 10.11.2 or 10.11.1 installed from ISO file ?
December 31, 201510 yr Author Can You install 10.11.2 with these settings ? I have tested several combination but installation stall after "Bluetooth -- completed ". Anyone that manage to get 10.11.2 or 10.11.1 installed from ISO file ? Check out the comments on my guide for 10.11. Another user listed some steps he used to get past the Bluetooth option. Sorry I don't have time to play with this now but if you get this working please post the steps for others.
January 3, 201610 yr Would really appreciate some help with this. I have managed to install OSX 10.11.2 using inc without a problem. I think I have my GTX 960 passing through correctly because I can see the Darwin/x86 boot screen. The only problem I'm having is with USB pass through, I'm trying to pass through bus 001 which is 00:14.0 in my system. However when i try to boot with the following XML the USB stops working and no longer appears in Unraid even. This means I cannot boot past the boot loader screen because no keyboards will work. This is my current XML <domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'> <name>OSX-El-Capitan-10.11-VNC</name> <uuid>0ba39646-7ba1-4d41-9602-e2968b2fe36d</uuid> <metadata> <type>None</type> </metadata> <memory unit='KiB'>4194304</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>4194304</currentMemory> <vcpu placement='static'>2</vcpu> <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='1'/> <vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='2'/> </cputune> <resource> <partition>/machine</partition> </resource> <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-2.3'>hvm</type> <kernel>/mnt/user/isos/enoch_rev2795_boot</kernel> <boot dev='hd'/> <bootmenu enable='yes'/> </os> <features> <acpi/> </features> <cpu mode='custom' match='exact'> <model fallback='allow'>core2duo</model> </cpu> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='/mnt/user/isos/ElCapitan.img'/> <target dev='hda' bus='sata'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> </disk> <controller type='usb' index='0' model='nec-xhci'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/> </controller> <controller type='sata' index='0'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x1f' function='0x2'/> </controller> <controller type='pci' index='0' model='pcie-root'/> <controller type='pci' index='1' model='dmi-to-pci-bridge'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x1e' function='0x0'/> </controller> <controller type='pci' index='2' model='pci-bridge'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/> </controller> <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='52:54:00:00:20:30'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <model type='e1000-82545em'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/> </interface> <input type='mouse' bus='usb'/> <input type='keyboard' bus='usb'/> <memballoon model='none'/> </devices> <seclabel type='none' model='none'/> <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='ioh3420,bus=pcie.0,addr=1c.0,multifunction=on,port=1,chassis=1,id=root.1'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='usb-kbd'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='usb-mouse'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='isa-applesmc,osk= :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)'/> <qemu:arg value='-smbios'/> <qemu:arg value='type=2'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=00:14.0,bus=root.1,addr=00.1'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=01:00.0,bus=root.1,addr=00.0,multifunction=on,x-vga=on'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=01:00.1,bus=root.1,addr=00.2'/> </qemu:commandline> </domain>

January 3, 201610 yr So the VM will boot and on my display i see the Darwin/x86 boot menu, however to boot to Macintosh HD i need to be able to press enter and the keyboard does not respond at all. Again thank you for the help
January 3, 201610 yr Is OSX fully installed? Yes it was fully installed and i was able to boot into it earlier using VNC. Im at the enoch boot prompt where you can select Macintosh HD or the Recovery HD
January 3, 201610 yr Not sure what to suggest, if it were me I'd remove the gfx card and use VNC for a while, then you can boot into the OS and try and work out why the kb isn't working...
January 3, 201610 yr So within the VNC it boots fine however none of the USB devices that have been passed through have any power and do not respond at all, Any suggestions on what could be the cause?
January 3, 201610 yr So within the VNC it boots fine however none of the USB devices that have been passed through have any power and do not respond at all, Any suggestions on what could be the cause? No sorry Patrick, I'm fresh out of ideas I'm afraid..
January 3, 201610 yr So i have resolved the usb issue i believe by just repeating the process. I now have an entirely different issue lol. OSX 10.11.2 installs beautifully and works correctly when using VNC, now when i attempt to pass through the GPU, the system starts to boot however the loading bar stops at 25 percent on the apple logo. Has anyone seen this before? Here is my current XML, my graphics card is a GTX 960 if that is relevant.

January 5, 201610 yr So i have resolved the usb issue i believe by just repeating the process. I now have an entirely different issue lol. OSX 10.11.2 installs beautifully and works correctly when using VNC, now when i attempt to pass through the GPU, the system starts to boot however the loading bar stops at 25 percent on the apple logo. Has anyone seen this before? In reply to your keyboard issues, I use <bootmenu enable='no'/> to skip the first boot menu. This focuses the keyboard on the Enoch boot loader. For passing the 25% mark on boot you need to add some boot flags at the Enoch bootloader. I used nv_disable=1 to fully boot. Then install the Nvidia webdriver. The webdriver won't work for 10.11.2 so you need to install and modify the driver with an application called NVIDIA® WebDriver Updater.app. On the NVDAStartupWeb.kext patch tab enter 15D9c as fake OS build. After installing the driver the driver thinks you're still on 10.11.1. I didn't touch anything else in the app. After installing the drivers, reboot with nvda_drv=1 at the Enoch boot loader. I need to enter this at every boot which is annoying. I hope you don't have to. Check out this post for the correct files in the /Extra folder: https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=44908.msg429831#msg429831 ps: I also use a GTX 960 for the OSX VM. It drives 4 monitors (1*4K, 1*HD, 2*1600x1200) perfectly fine.
January 6, 201610 yr Anyone? I too have the same issue. ISO/Kernel are 10.11.2. Must be a kext thing, time to fiddle

January 6, 201610 yr Nah, I just worked it out. I'm just a dumbass. I'd not changed "<qemu:arg value='isa-applesmc,osk=64_Character_OSK_Key'/>" in my XML. Once updated, it fired up fine.
