Yes that is correct, if I remove the XML as outlined in step #20 of Archedraft's guide, I get the timestamp error that I posted, if I put the removed XML back, its fine.

 

No it was part of the files downloaded from Archedraft's guide, I haven't done anything with it yet, not even opened it.

I Think archedraft file are corrupt, please create one from scratch

Oh well that's sad news

Are we talking about the org.chameleon.boot.plist file?

 

CHBMB what happens when you remove the XML lines in step #20 from your OSX VM can you start it?

 

AM

Yes it looks like this when I have extract it

Sorry if this is a stupid obvious question, but if my org.chameleon.boot.plist file is corrupt, how do I create one from scratch as you guys did?

this is what I used previously, no I'm on Clover  :o

Maybe I'll just start from scratch again and do this under Yosemite and see how it works out. If its good, then I'll upgrade to El Capitain.

Are you using clover with OVMF?

No I am following Archedraft's guide.

 

Interestingly enough, with those XML lines left in (which step #20 says to remove) I can sign into iMessage.

Not in the xml file, I installed clover according the post on your blog 

 

BUT I have looked to use OVMF but no success so fare, the goal is to have Clover on one image to boot from

Honestly it's fine to leave in those lines... It will just give you access to your osx ISO. It's not hurting anything.

I was just about to say that.  All it does is remove the installation iso.  Can't even see how it can be possible for that to cause the problem you're seeing...

Do we really think at this point that my org.chameleon.boot.plist is corrupted? I haven't even edited it yet.

Well it's easy enough to check it's just a text file.  Open it and compare to what's in step 17.

So no, the info in my plist file was different, I updated it from what is in Archedraft's doc saved it, removed those XML lines again, but I still get the same error when starting the VM. I edited the plist file with text editor.

Well I was able to update to 10.11.2 no problem, however I cannot sign into iCloud or iMessage. I guess I will forge ahead with the USB passthrough and try to figure out how to pass my GTX 960 through. Do I have to plug an extra keyboard and mouse into my unraid server to figure out what USB controller they are on so I can pass them through?

You don't need to necessarily plug a kb and mouse into the controllers but it needs to be something unique so you don't get it confused with the Unraid flash drive.  I just used a spare flash I had lying around, that was from a different manufacturer than my Unraid one.

Can you still use a keyboard and mouse on unRAID's command line once the VM's boot? I can use mine up until the point where my VM's start to boot, then the keyboard stops working (even on "unRAIDs USB controller".

Yes I can, I have a keyboard connected to my UnRaid server and its operational now, even though  my OSX VM is booted at the moment.

I bought a cheap KVM from Ebay and plug that into my Win10 USB, OSX USB & Unraid.  Flick between them using the KVM...

Hmm interesting... I wonder what is going on with my setup then. Maybe it doesn't like the bluetooth USB dongle?? As soon as the VMs start it just dies. Although my UPS still shows up under unRAID so it must be something specific to they keyboard.

I posted in your USB passthrough thread, anyway I figured out that I shouldn't pass through bus 003 as that is the bus my UnRaid flash drive is on, my case has external USB ports on the top and those are on bus 004 so I figure I can pass that through, not sure what is on bus 001 or 002 nothing showed up when I plugged in my flash drives and it just shows Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub and 3.0 root hub.
