osx86 install maker and utilities for Linux

#osx86_linux

osx86_linux is a script aimed at people who want to try OS X (hackintosh, but also vanilla pendrive preparation will be possible in the future), but don't have a real MAC to prepare the usb installer, or have a CPU that doesn't support virtualization.

This script creates an osx86 installer starting from a dmg file (InstallESD or Install DVD).

Should work with OS X Snow leopard (10.6) and above

TODO:

• Clover support (currently not tested/working)
• Vanilla installer support (via boot.efi)
• Some form of dialog / UI
• Cleanup old code
• Test the current code with different images or environments

Dependencies

Make sure you have source code repositories enabled (deb-src in debian based distributions)

apt-get install build-essential libbz2-dev libxml2-dev qemu-utils hfsprogs dialog expect-dev

dmg2img

apt-get build-dep dmg2img

kconfig

apt-get install gperf libncurses5-dev

For GTK Configuration support

apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libglade2-dev

For QT Configuration support

apt-get install libqt4-dev

darling-dmg

apt-get install cmake libfuse-dev libssl-dev libicu-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev

---

For Virtual HD support:

apt-get install virtualbox

For chameleon support:

• chameleon/boot
• chameleon/boot0
• chameleon/boot1h

For additional kexts:

• extra_kexts/FakeSMC.kext
• <any other kext> (NullCPUPowerManagement, ps2 controller, ...)

For MBR Patch:

• osinstall_mbr/OSInstall
• osinstall_mbr/OSInstall.mpkg

For Custom SMBios:

• Place smbios.plist in script directory

Note: You will need to run kconfig first to configure the script and create .config. The script won't run otherwise

To do so, run ./bins/bin/kconfig-mconf Kconfig from the script directory.

If you prefer, you can use kconfig-nconf, konfig-gconf or kconfig-qconf for a different configuration interface.

see ./install_osx.sh -h for usage
