v7.6.5 Cannot Install on Mac Catalina #324

Closed djcyr closed 3 years ago

djcyr commented 4 years ago

Is it possible to get a build working for Mac Catalina? The latest dist v7.6.5 does not seem to be working after install.

I tried kextstat | grep intel and see nothing.

Furthermore, the android emulator gives no indication that HAXM is being utilized.

Thanks for all your work that you have already put into this project!

Since macOS Catalina 10.15, Kernel Extension is no longer supported to be installed by Apple. Instead, it is replaced by System Extensions, which requires to rewrite the driver framework. We are evaluating the workload. Please use HVF instead during this period. Sorry for bringing you the inconvenience, thank you for your attention to HAXM.

Hi @wcwang what's HVF ? Could you provide a link please ?

@Mouradif, thanks for your question. The QEMU HVF feature can be found here. Currently, HVF is the default hypervisor for macOS, you may try to remove the parameter of '-accel hax' from the command line to launch QEMU or add '-accel hvf' instead. Thanks.
