Hello, I have successfully installed MacOS Ventura in a Hyper-V VM. However, there are many issues including lack of time synchronization, terrible graphics, and bad resolution. There is little to no documentation on this matter and I understand if there isn't anything that I can do to fix it.
Any held would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for reporting success. It's on our guide list and there will be a dedicated guide very soon.
 
Okay, great!

Hi pidimensions,

Thanks for making the Hyper-V VM available. I've loaded it and after time the installation screen appeared.
I’ve formatted the 250 Gb disk and started the installation. After a while, the stop sign appears with the text “support.apple.com/mac/startup”.

I’m running the VM on a Intel-based Windows 11 PC, using your exact VM configuration (16 Gb RAM and 8 vCPUs).

Any hints/tips for this one?

Thanks!

Restart and try again. A guide will be there soon.
 
The guide is already there but it doesn't provide detailed instructions on how to properly configure OpenCore or the Config.plist entries.

For instance, it simply states:
12. Now, copy the com.apple.recovery.boot and the EFI from xGxx to the root of the EFI BOOT Drive.
However, it doesn't explain what "xGxx" refers to or where to source it. I kindly request an update or clarification on this part of the guide.

The guide is under WIP and will be updated soon.

I have exactly the same issue as his.

I guess everything is still in heavy WIP thanks anyways.
 
Hello everybody!
On the 3rd day I try to install Ventura or Sonoma on Hyper-V, but nothing comes out.
Every time it all comes down to the same mistakes.
Today I found this ready image of a VM under hyper-v, but it didn't work either, with the same errors.
I do not know what to do.
Do you have any idea what's going on?

I'm trying to install on: HP DL360, Windows Server 2019 (1809), 2x Xeon E5-2640 v4, 64Gb.

I got a similar result on my laptop with this virtual machine image (see screenshot): huawei mate book 14s, i7-11370p, 16Gb, Intel Iris Chu Graphics, Windows 10 Pro 22H2.

Thank you in advance for your attention to my question.
