You must remove the original template as shown in the video. Then download macinabox. This is very impotant else the new and old templates will merge causing a problem.

Got into the macOS recovery utility, but I cannot boot into Big Sur after running it.  Keeps rebooting into the recovery utility.  I did set FIRSTINSTALL to no.

I deleted the Macinabox Container, deleted the template and  /appdata/macinabox. Pluss deleted the scripts. 

 

Then added the Macinabox Container as per video and edited the helper user script. Macinabox Container WebUI points to the Youtube video.

You havent finished the install.  The base system is the install media. The macOS installer is your big sur disk. Just select it and it will continue installing. (it has named itsself macOS installer because when you formatted the disk in disk utility you didnt name it)

It will restart to this bootloader a few times during install just keep pressing enter to continue each time and the install will finish

If when clicking webui it goes to the old macinabox youtube video then the old template was still installed when you downloaded the container. (this is not in the new template - so it has now just merged the pld and new template together)

 

Please delete the container. Then goto the bottom of the docker page. Click add template. Then click select template. From the list of your previously installed templates choose macinabox. Then to the right of its name click the black cross. It will remove the template. Then goto the apps tab search for and install macinabox and it will download the template from ca and install the new one.

 

Any way to have the boot manager auto select the bigsur disk when starting?

 

I'm trying to have VM with graphics card pass through, and currently have a wireless keyboard/mouse (logitech) and on the bootloader screen, can't click the volume to boot.

 

Works fine when using VNC as obviously using the host keyboard/mouse.

Set your boot disk from within mac os, then check ShowPicker property in the config.plist, to automatically boot without user interaction you need it set to false.

Otherwise, if you want the picker (what you call boot manager) to always show, set it to true, but change the timeout value.

I recommend all to read opencore documentation:

https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/blob/master/Docs/Configuration.pdf

 

All is well documented.

Yes.

Using opencore configurator. Mount your efi partition and open the config.plist with the configurator.

goto misc

and set as in this pic (check hideauxillary and uncheck show picker)

This is exactly what I did. I double checked if it was deleted. I actually made a picture of it in case you said what you just stated. See screenshots. Do you want me to do the same process again?

Yes you can try again or if you would rather just change the location (in advanced view)  to http://[IP]:[PORT:7800] 

Hi mickeyosm and thank to your reply,

 

I've done everything you've explained but I have this error message and I'm not sure what to do. I've only been on Unraid for a month, I'm a big beginner.

 

Have you a lead to give me.

Thanks, I should have figured the "http://[IP]:[PORT:7800] " myself. Sorry for being slow.

Install netcat-openbsd-1.105 in Nerd Tools/Nerd Pack. If you haven't installed Nerd Pack, do so in Community Applications.

Hi Mukita. Which verion os macOS are you using? Which version of Unraid?  What is failing exactly? Black screen. Error message?

Previous ver (catalina), new version (bug sur). Unraid 6.8.3. Here is the error msg

Got my install sorted out, but if I try to login with my Apple ID I get "Could not communicate with the server." and I did follow the steps to verify it should work.

Looks like after docker install its pulled down install and opencore into ISOS folder and I have a bigSur folder in domains with a 100GB disk however vmready_notify is still running and no VM is present in list. Been a few hours so i'm assuming its not still downloading. Any logs to check to help figure out where its stuck?

 

I regret every day when I setup UnRaid for the first time I changed "appdata" to "docker"  updated both scripts to look in proper directory and poof there is a VM in my list!!

Is it possible to upgrade catalina to big sur without a complete reinstall?

Yes defenitly possible!

1) Full manually by hand and changing the bootloader from clover to opencore.

2) Or half manual by uninstalling the old macinabox and reinstall the new version, create a new XML and bootloader move your old Catalina image in this newly created VM Folder and boot it up with opencore and the new settings.
I guess you already watched the new video from SpaceinvaderOne on youtube?
