Hi, thanks for the bug report. You could just try running ./macos-guest-virtualbox.sh configure_vm and_all_subsequent_stages and see if whatever issue existed no longer prevents the VM from being configured.

Or, you could manually run VBoxManage modifyvm "macOS" --cpus "2" and post here whatever unintelligible error VirtualBox spits out and we'll try to figure it out.

The command "VBoxManage list extpacks" either does not list the Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack, or lists one or more extensions as unusable. The virtual machine will be configured without USB xHCI controllers.

This is strange. Please run bash -x ./macos-guest-virtualbox.sh configure_vm and post the output here, preferably attached as a .txt file.

[jafarsadeghi]

output.txt this is the output file

[myspaghetti]

There's a stray new line after cpu_count=, should be on a single line cpu_count=4

[jafarsadeghi]

that issue handled , but this issue poped up : stage: populate_macos_target_disk Could not configure virtual machine storage controller. Exiting. what shoud i do for this? thank you for your help.

[myspaghetti]

What's the output of the following commands:

VBoxManage storagectl "macOS" --remove --name SATA
VBoxManage storagectl "macOS" --add sata --name SATA --hostiocache on

[jafarsadeghi]

in first attempt the output was nothing for both of them,

in second attempt for each command the output was like below:

first command second attempt : VBoxManage: error: Could not find a storage controller named 'SATA' VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component SessionMachine, interface IMachine, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "RemoveStorageController(Bstr(pszCtl).raw())" at line 1062 of file VBoxManageStorageController.cpp second command second attempt: VBoxManage: error: Storage controller named 'SATA' already exists VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_IN_USE (0x80bb000c), component SessionMachine, interface IMachine, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "AddStorageController(Bstr(pszCtl).raw(), StorageBus_SATA, ctl.asOutParam())" at line 1078 of file VBoxManageStorageController.cpp

It's likely the virtual machine was not completely shut down when the command was executed, should be fine now. You should be able to resume the script with ./macos-guest-virtualbox.sh populate_macos_target_disk and_all_subsequent_stages

thank you i installed successfully thank you
