2.0 Setup SD Card Reader
The SD-Card reader is not supported in macos. However with a bit of trickery we can make it work
It takes under 10 Seconds to mount your SD Card.
Status: Works is not polished. See Improvement/todo Section
VMware Fusion Player or Pro Version.
The Player is free.
Change the ssdt from the default one to this one in the right folder on the EFI Partition. It allows for powering on the SD-Card-Reader: https://github.com/daliansky/XiaoMi-Pro-Hackintosh/files/5354072/SSDT-USB_SD.zip
you don't need to reboot yet. You need to do this after fuse install.
Install Homebrew:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
Install sshfs,netcat and Fuse:
brew cask install osxfuse
brew install sshfs
brew install netcat
Make an mount dir.
sudo mkdir /Volumes/SD-CardReader
Change permission for sudo so you can execute stuff without password see here: https://www.robertshell.com/blog/2016/12/3/use-sudo-command-osx-without-password
Download my stuff: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a5IsBR4m4FHzs80ZtFILHYJ3hsVvXcr2/view?usp=sharing
unzip it:
unzip Downloads/SD-Card-Reader-Deployment_v04.zip
Copy the VM:
cp -r SD-Card-Reader-Deployment_v02/VM/Tiny.vmwarevm Virtual\ Machines.localized/
Download BitBar: https://github.com/matryer/bitbar/releases/tag/v1.9.2
Install it in Applications
As a Plugin Folder choose the BitBar Folder in the Download directory eg: SD-Card-Reader-Deployment_v04/Bitbar/
Place SD Card into the SD Card Slot.
Click in the Menubar on the grey SD-Card icon and mount the SD.
Wait for like 10 Seconds till finder opens.
To unmount:
Just unmount in Finder.

- Testing
-- This needs extensive testing on other systems. Please help!
- Faster startup
-- Vmware UEFI takes 2 Seconds (How can we make that faster?)
-- Booting Tiny Linux Takes 3 Seconds (This could be reduced with remastering the kernel)
- sd-mount.sh
-- Ping is somehow not reliable and in rare occasion reports host down when the vm is actally up
The VM has the IP: 192.168.28.131 if you run other VMs this could change or 131 could be taken.
