How to Install Mac OS X Snow Leopard in VirtualBox on Linux
I have been trying to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard in VirtualBox using a Mac OS X install disk. When I boot it boots into a very simple shell that I can't type anything into instead of booting Mac OS X regularly.
I don't think you can just install OSX into a vm from dvd and boot it unless it is a hacked version such as osx86. OSX uses different type of bootloader than a standard x86 hardware it is using EFI.
