VirtualBox with High-Sierra fails, "Attempting system restart...MACH Reboot" or repeating reboots #52
Comments
GitHub does not allow to upload the videos directly, but I could upload them as ZIP, so sorry for the unneccessary extra package. These are the videos from where I took the screenshots above: Mac OS X High Sierra - failed.zip |
The same thing for me... |
Got the same thing, but I was able to fix it by running these commands: VBoxManage modifyvm VMNAME--cpuidset 00000001 000106e5 00100800 0098e3fd bfebfbff After that, I started the VM, the boot process was successful and was able to get the installer. |

After setting the above EFI values on my Ubuntu, I got errors when starting the virtual machine: Invalid config value(s) for the EFI device (VERR_PDM_DEVINS_UNKNOWN_CFG_VALUES). The fix was to to add my user to group vboxusers, as it looks like on Ubuntu I was not a group member by default. |
VirtualBox: tried with two versions:
One thing is new: Now VirtualBox pretends to explicitely support
