How to install OS X Mountain Lion in Virtualbox wi.Mountain Lion was announced in February this year, and unusually for Apple they gave journalists and some tech websites an advanced sneak peak.Replace '1920x1080x32' with whatever resolution you're using. Replace 'Name of virtual machine' with the name of your virtual machine- you can find the name of your virtual machine in the left pane of the Virtualbox main window (in the screenshot below, my virtual machine is named 'Mountain Mac 2'). This command activates 'vboxmanage', a command-line program included with Virtualbox that allows you to edit the properties of your virtual machine, including its built-in resolutions. Vboxmanage setextradata 'Name of virtual machine' 'CustomVideoMode1' '1920x1080x32' This command will change the focus of the Command Prompt to the program folder for Virtualbox (if you installed Virtualbox somewhere different, then change the command toР’В whereverР’В you installed it). Then, type the following command into the Command Prompt. You can do this by opening the Start Menu, and typing 'command prompt' into the Start Menu search bar.

Next, open the Command Prompt in Windows (make sure you are logged into an Administrator account on Windows). For instance, if you want to use the 1600x900 resolution, type in '1600x900x32'.Р’В Once you've saved it, turn off the virtual machine. You can change '1920x1080x32' to whatever resolution best fits your monitor.

Multibeast 4.6.1: You will need to use Multibeast 4.6.1, our favorite Hackintosh post-installation tool, to set up the Mountain Lion virtual machine after the initial installation.Р’В While Multibeast 4.6.1 is an old version designed for Mac OS X Lion instead of Mountain Lion, in our case, it actually works betterР’В than newer versions of Multibeast.Р’В Registration is required on the tonymacx86 website to download this.'Hackboot 1' is for starting the Mountain Lion installer, while 'Hackboot' 2 is for starting Mountain Lion itself. There are three different versions of Hackboot we'll need to use two of them in this guide. To help Mountain Lion start, you'll need to use Olarila's Hackboot CD. Hackboot 1Р’В / Hackboot 2: Even though it's called a 'bootable DVD', the Olarila version of OS X Mountain Lion still can't boot in Virtualbox by itself.In the past, we've used the iAtkos distro for this, but iAtkos hasn't updated for Mountain Lion yet, so I used the 'OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion bootable DVD for Intel PCs', by Olarila. I won't go into details, but you can download these copies from about any bittorrent website by using a bittorrent clientР’В (it's about 4.5 GB in size).

Instead, you'll have to rely on pirated 'bootable DVD' copies of Mountain Lion, also known as 'distros'.

Mountain Lion bootable DVD : Unfortunately, the standard method for installing OS X Mountain Lion on PCs (which uses a paid copy of the Mountain Lion installer) doesn't work with Virtualbox.

VirtualboxР’В : This virtualization suite is free, and though it doesn't offer official support for Mac OS X, it works well enough.
