Virtualising Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server/Rosetta

Mac Os X Server V10 6 Snow Leopard Download

Mac Os X Server free download - Apple Mac OS X Snow Leopard, R for Mac OS X, Apple Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 Supplemental Update, and many more programs. Download macOS Monterey. MacOS Monterey (Version 12) is the Eighteenth major release. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard is an upgrade to the previous version of OS X Leopard. This update does not have stacks of new features, rather overall improvements and efficiency upgrades. This version of Apple's OS also has a reduced footprint. Key features include.

The ability to virtualise Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is important and very useful as it is the only way to use Rosetta(PowerPC) based applications on a modern Macintosh computer. MacStrategy presents a special guide to doing just this. You mustvirtualise Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server and not the client version. This is a legal requirement by Apple.You are legally allowed to virtualise the server version but not the normal, client version.
This article deals with setting up/installing a virtual machine with Mac OS X 10.6 clean/from scratch. If you would like to transfer an existing Mac running Mac OS X 10.6 to a virtual machine, or take a Mac OS X 10.6 bootable storage device/clone/disk image and convert it into a virtual machine please see this article instead.

Virtualisation Software

  • Parallels Desktop [£69.99 inc VAT - 14 day free trial available]
  • VMWare Fusion [£70.00 inc VAT - 30 day free trial available]
  • Oracle VirtualBox [FREE - Open source under GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2]

Instructions

Some people have reported that if you have a very modern Macintosh computer (one released well after Mac OS X 10.6 existed) it is not easy/possible to install to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server in a virtual environment. We're looking into that and will update this article with more information when we have it. We'll test with other Macs as and when we can and update this article accordingly. For this article we have tested using the following Macs:
  • MacBook Pro 15' (Early 2011 model - MacBookPro8,2) [released after 10.6.3]
  • Mac mini (Late 2012 model - Macmini6,2) [released after 10.6.3]
If you do have an older Mac that should support Mac OS X 10.6 but get an error message along the lines of 'Mac OS virtual machines can run only on computers having Mac OS X Leopard (version 10.5.1 or higher) or Mac OS X Tiger (version 10.4.11 or higher) installed' specifically listing 'Problem ID: 397' then follow Parallel's instructions here and try again.Leopard

Preparation

Mac Os X 10.5 Iso

NOTE: You will need a Mac with a physical, optical drive to create an ISO disk image of the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD. This does not need to be the Mac you ultimately install the virtual machine on, you just need a Mac with an optical drive to create the ISO disk image of the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD in the first place.
  • Obtain your preferred virtualisation software (see list above)
  • Obtain the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install disc:
    • If you don't have one, it is available by calling the Apple Store (in the UK 0800 048 0408) - you cannot buy it via the Apple online store
    • You need part number 'MC588Z/A' which is specifically 'Mac OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Server Unlimited Clients Single Licence International' (£14.00 inc VAT in the UK) - not the normal client edition (part number MC573Z/A)
  • Create an ISO disk image of the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD:
    1. Go to Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
    2. Insert your Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD
    3. In Disk Utility, in the top left, click on the icon for the optical drive not the indented line for the disc volume
    4. Go to File menu > New > Disk Image from device name, where device name is the OS name of your optical drive e.g. disk1
    5. In the save dialogue box enter a suitable filename e.g. 'Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 ISO.dmg'. Leave Image Format with the default setting of compressed.
    6. Wait for the image to be created and then eject the original DVD
    7. Archive/backup the 'Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 ISO.dmg' disc image that you just created
  • Purchase/install/update your preferred virtualisation software
  • Make sure you have plenty of free hard disk space (a basic 10.6 Server install is about ~8.5GB before your own applications and you'll need at least twice that if you need to clone it for multiple installations), so we recommend at least 25GB of free space
  • Make sure your actual, physical Mac has a working internet connection e.g. use a web browser to go to https://www.apple.com and see if you can view a web page
  • Create a dedicated folder to share files/documents with the virtual environment e.g. in your Documents folder create a folder titled '106SharedFolder'

Mac OS X 10.6 Server Notes

Security Notes

Mac OS X 10.6 is no longer supported with security updates so be sure to follow our recommendations for securing older operating systems, specifically:
  • Don't use Apple Safari as it is no longer updated and thus it is not secure - use a supported web browser e.g. Roccat or TenFourFox
  • Don't use Apple Mail as it is no longer updated and thus it is not secure (unless you are running this virtual Mac specifically to run Eudora use a mail client in your primary OS instead)
  • Don't install unsupported web plug-ins and disable old plugins:
    1. Go to 106 Server HD (or whatever you have named the virtual hard disk) > Library
    2. If there is no folder named 'Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled)', create a new folder named that
    3. Open the 'Internet Plug-Ins' folder and move all the items in it to the 'Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled)' folder
      4. NOTE: To move the files you will need to authenticate as an administrator of the computer.
    4. Restart the virtual machine (go to Apple menu > Restart)

General Notes

  • As it is a server installation automatic login is off by default - you can turn it on in Apple menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options > Automatic Login
  • There are extra folders on the root of the hard disk titled 'Groups' and 'Shared Items' - this is normal, you don't need to worry about them, but do not delete them.
  • There is an extra folder in Applications titled 'Server' - this is normal, you don't need to worry about it - it contains the server administrator software, but do not delete the folder/software.

I’m currently getting more and more Apple computers and iDevices to do repair on and I’ve been in need of the Mac operating system. As everyone knows there is a heavy duty Mac tax that keeps me from buying an Appple computer. With that being said, I needed something that would allow me to test Apple hardware and software without paying alot of money. After doing plenty of research I found out that I can use Oracles Virtualbox to virtualize an install of Mac OS X Snow Leopard and run it on my work computer. FANTASTIC! So I followed these instructions on my Windows 7 PC to get it installed on non-apple hardware virtulized. Here is where my clause is inserted to keep me from getting sued by apple: You shouldn’t run long term since you technically have to own a mac to run any Mac OS end clause 🙂 You can pick up Snow Leopard for $30 so it didn’t barely cost me anything. Here are the steps I took:

Required for Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install:

1) Oracle VirtualBox 3.2 or above Dowload

2) Mac OS X 10. 6 Snow Leopard Retail DVD or ISO

Don’t try to use a burned copy virtual box doesn’t like it.

3) EFI Boot Loader – Helps us boot into Snow Leopard – Download it here.

My PC Specifications:

Server

Intel Corei7 2.8Ghz, 8Gb DDR3 Ram, Intel P55 chipset and Win 7 64bit OS.

How to install

Mac os x leopard server downloads

1) Create a new Virtual Machine. Give it a name and select Mac OS X Server.

2)Memory around 2Gb if you have it as long as its at least 1GB.

Display Give the the display memory size at least 64mb and enable 3d support under display settings.

Processor Cores – 1 or more
Enable PAE/NX, VT-x,
Nesting Page – Enabled
Enable IO APIC and Enable Absolute pointing device.
Remove Enable EFI. Built in EFI loader may work with apple hardware only.

3) Go to the Storage settings and add a SATA hard disk. Make sure to have the drive size at least 20Gb. Also make sure the Type is ICH6.

4) Make sure that the CDROM drive is set to boot first.

5) Mount empireEFIv1085.iso to CD drive. Make CD ROM as first boot device. Keep your Snow Leopard DVD or ISO file ready.

6) Start the virtual machine. When following screen appears, eject loader ISO and load Mac installation DVD or ISO.

To do the swap you right click on CD drive in the bottom right and select drive or ISO image of Snow Leopard Install disc. Wait a bit , Press F5 and ENTER Key on the Snow Leopard Install disc.

7) Go through the installation process like usual.

If you hard drives are available to install you need to go to the Utilities at the top, Disk Utility, and partition the Vbox hard drive. When its done close out of it and it should be available then.

8) IF you get an installation failed message at the end dont worry about it. Manually close the virtualbox window, mount the empireEFI ISO again and start back up again.

9) Now you can see your mac hard drive on the boot loader screen to choose from.It should load up and allow you to boot to your new Snow Leopard install.

10) Not everything will work 100%. I luckily got a very compatible chipset so my video card (9800GTX), audio and everything worked fine out of the box.

11) The last step is to install a boot loader to avoid from having to use the empireEFI disc. I used the chameleon boot loader. If you open the empire EFI disc that is already mounted and open the Post Installation folder. Run the myHack Installer package, Select Customize in Installation Type. DONT UNCHECK ANYTHING.
