I set display memory to 64MB as well.Īfter you finished mac os installation, you can also fix the resolution problemĪt the end, I also disabled most of the mac os animations. Important Note 2: Beside the sound problem mentioned above, the only differences in my virtual machine settings compared to the tutorial is that I set memory to 1300 MB during the installation and to 800 MB after installation was finished. Once I have installed mac os, I disabled Audio in virtual machine settings. In fact it's buggy and introduces a lot of lag, especially during the installation setup. Important Note: Sound wont work in the virtual mac os (at least I could not find a solution).

Then go through the Maverick installation on your virtualbox as explained here Note: The tutorial is for windows host, but the procedure is same for ubuntu host.

(for all this you also need to get an ssd upgrade on your laptop) Obviously you need to be in developer mode, have an ubuntu installed with crouton and have a virtualbox working in that ubuntu. UPDATE: here are the things you need to do: Now on this puny laptop I have chromeos, ubuntu xfce, Windows xp, Andriod, and Mac OS!

If someone is interested I could add more details. Sound and file sharing does not work, but otherwise it boots up and workable. I was able to setup and run OS X on my Acer C720 with virtualbox in crouton.
