Can I install Big Sur using this? #321

Open AarizYT opened 3 years ago

AarizYT commented 3 years ago

Is there any way to install Big Sur using this method? Maybe by changing the script? Please let me know. Thanks.

rastogiujj12 commented 3 years ago

checkout the Big Sur branch.

Can you please link where I could see the Big Sur branch? I can't see it, thanks.

Thanks I found some code regarding it, do you know if I can install MacOS Big Sur yet or is it still work in progress?

Did somebody manage to Get Big Sur running?

superbonaci commented 3 years ago

Any news on Big Sur? Updating from previous version doesn't work.

superbonaci commented 3 years ago

Got Big Sur running inside QEMU with fork https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM Take quite some steps to get it installed and insist on installer but finally boots.

nemihome commented 3 years ago

I also used OSX-KVM but this is incedibly slow. If I play a youtube video it is horrible with OSX-KVM. When using simple-KVM the video performance is much better. Furthermore with OSX-KVM there is now sound. Have you compared sound and video performance? If I try to use passthrough with OSX-KVM the mouse is not moving anymore. So I'm not sure if video performance is better in this case.

@superbonaci, what did you do to make it finally boot? I'm stuck in a never-ending installation loop...

superbonaci commented 3 years ago

@elg0ch0 I think I've selected ./fetch-macOS.py (not ./fetch-macOS-v2.py) and worked. If not, you can try installing Catalina then upgrade to Big Sur using system updates.

@superbonaci , thanks! I've found this and I'm trying to be mroe patient with "about and hour" or so that the process takes... In case it doesn't work I'll try either ./fetch-macOS.py or the Catalina upgrade option

Thanks a lot!

superbonaci commented 3 years ago

@elg0ch0 I recommend you placing the macOS-Simple-KVM folder on any SSD drive, doesn't have to be Linux, but 1.5h to 2h will take to upgrade and reboot several times. After reboot you select a new icon to appears to upgrade otherwise you fallback to same version. Then the icon disappears.

Very true, OSX-KVM big sur is very sluggish and hangs up multiple times

Any idea why it's so sluggish on OSX-KVM? Is it any better with macOS-Simple-KVM?

developerfromjokela commented 2 years ago

I got it sorta stopping glitching by copying some parts from this repo

superbonaci commented 2 years ago

I think you don't have properly installed qemu and its dependencies, specially on Arch based distros. On Ubuntu works better out of the box but on Arch you have to work it out.

ajkessel commented 2 years ago

I tried upgrading from within a Catalina instance and it crashed before completing. Also tried installing Big Sur fresh from the OSX-KVM fork and it seemed to be stuck at "15 minutes remaining" for a very long time -- should I expect it will eventually move forward? Has anyone found a reliable upgrade path and/or made progress on any of the performance issues? My main concern is that I'm not sure if Catalina is vulnerable to the FORCEDENTRY iMessages security hole which was recently patched in Big Sur.

If I’m already running a VM from this repo, is there an upgrade path to OSX-KVM? Or if it’s already installed and running, is there any reason to switch to OSX-KVM? Is this entire repo now deprecated?

darkbasic commented 2 years ago

This repo is outdated. Use https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM instead

I think everybody knows, but the fact that you cannot f4ck1ng create issues on that damn repo is the main reason why people ask questions in similar projects IMHO. I'm a 100% ok with the author not wanting to provide support, but damn at least give everybody else the freedom to help each other's: why closing the issues and wiki sections? In fact I am so tired of this that I've just forked it for the sole purpose of activating issues: https://github.com/darkbasic/OSX-KVM-issues/issues Probably nobody is going to find/use it, but next time I will have a problem I will document my findings there and everybody is welcome to do the same if they are willing to.
