Also looked at Big Sur and Sonoma get same error the autopilot script worked without error messages in the log file and screen said success. |
|
Hello! Can I ask you to provide your system specifications and autopilot logs if possible? |

Ubuntu 24.10 |
|
Hello, please let me know if you need anything else for resolving this boot issue! |

Hello, might need something else too - run the script back, go to Compatibility Checks... and then run System Profiler, and send the .log that it gives, please. For now can't figure out the root of the cause... |

So we are starting to piece some some stuff together and we see maybe this is about memory? But in order to verify that, I will (for last time I hope) ask you for your generated vm-script. It should be somewhere in your project's root directory (aka where you launch main.py at) |
|
Ah. In the boot script, you've tried to specify 4 threads on 2 cores - but QEMU multiplies the amounts together for total thread count, so think of your virtual machine using literally 8 cores. For it to launch, you will need to change this value to:
Please tell me if this fix has worked for you. Cheers! |

TODO: Write this in the GOTCHAS page |

Changed to 2 threads and still get the same issue, it's nice of you for taking the effort, thanks. |
|
Does it straight up not boot or gets to some point on macOS bootloader? |
|
When I run the boot.sh the system will either reboot or just stop and gives the error code listed above. |
...wait, like, the entire host system? |
|
I have exactly the same machine and it will crash everytime when i use more then 1 core 1 thread. But is not problem on this macos-kvm but on all kvm macs. Working : |
|
Edit: I am experiencing the same trying to install "Sonama". The installer only runs if all cpu options are "1".
The bootloader shows up in the VM, but proceeding to "install", it hangs on the black splash screen with the apple logo and light grey progress bar (which appears to be full). Various attempts at different cpu configurations behave the same, or cause the Apple install process to crash immediately after the black splash screen and go back to the bootloader.
