Having difficulties to install Snow Leopard Server on Fusion 4

I upgraded from Fusion 3 to 4. I want to use the merger to run Snow Leopard Server under Leo, so I use a few applications of Rosetta. When I try to install SLS from the disc, it starts and stops with the message:

"The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system.

Power off or reset the virtual machine.

Im trying to install on a MacBook Pro i7 quad core 8 GB of RAM. The merger is the version 4.0.1

What should I do?

Thanks in advance,

Bill White

Hi Bill,

You should be able to install and configure 10.6.3 on the Core 2 Duo Mac Mini.  If you were to then move it as-is on the MBP, it fails at startup in the same way that you see with the installation program now... however... If, although the host of Core 2 Duo, you apply each update is available via software update, turn off the prompt, then move it into the Core i7, there is a good chance that it will work (I think 10.6.8 supports your Core i7 CPU)...  Definitely worth a shot.

See you soon,.

  • His guest of Snow Leopard Server in Fusion 7 in Yosemite?

    Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I have found some answers to Fusion 4, but didn't work for me. The problem is that I seem to be able to get a sound of a new Snow Leopard Server virtual machine.

    I tried of course to add the audio card in the virtual machine in Fusion settings, but nothing helped. Install the EnsoniqAudioPCI_v1.0.3_Common_Installer.pkg in the guest does not have anything either. My procedure was perhaps wrong? Can someone explain what are the specific steps and/or downloads should be done to a guest of Snow Leopard Server have sound?

    Thank you.

    Some good news, Woody and all. I just recreated the Snow Leopard Server 64-bit) virtual machine from scratch with VMware Fusion 7.0.1 (after adding the virtual Hardware Sound Card before installing the guest operating system). After installing the VMware Tools and restart, I installed the driver Ensoniq restarted 1.0.3 and, as was to be expected, no sound. Then I turned off the VM, then I open the vmx with Text Edit file and deleted the line incriminated who supposedly provided hdaudio to the guest OS. I saved the file and rebooted the computer virtual and boom! Sound œuvres.

    Thanks to you all.

  • Cannot install on Fusion 5 comments of Snow Leopard Server.

    I just got my new shiny Server Snow Leopard 10.6.3 DVD from Apple (Yes, it was $19.99 and I got on the phone, the operator of chat on the apple online store did know about this).

    I downloaded the trial version of vmware fusion 5.0.2 and tried to install. He always stops raise a screen saying:

    INSTALLATION FAILED

    Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer

    Setup failed to copy the required support files.

    Click on restart to restart your computer and try to reinstall.

    I tried several times. I thought that maybe something my old installation of VMware Fusion 2 created problems, so I followed the instructions to the 1017838 of the knowledge base article to uninstall everything. I deleted the app, even my old virtual machines. The first time I did that I must have missed something, because when I tried to install fusion 5 new he already knew my trial license key. So I went all uninstall - reinstall procedure more 2 times, restarting the computer between each course.

    Anyway installed snow leopard server on fusion 5 has?

    Advice appreciated. I need this facility for an older application that requires rosetta and this hack seems to be the only way I can get it.

    Either way, my host is a 5,1 Macbook running Mountain Lion. 8 GB of ram, 100 GB of free disk space.

    Thank you.

    Hi cmwoodand welcome to the VMware communities!

    We had a few reports that the disk of the server Snow Leopard 10.6.3 triggers a problem with merging and direct access to the physical disk.  If they send 10.6.3 media for this crazy business of $20, I suspect we'll see more of these problems...

    You should be able to work around it using disk utility on your host to make an image of Mac OS X install disk, and then attach the disk image of the virtual machine and install by whom.  (When you use disk utility, make sure that you select the drive of optical disc as the source of the image, not the media named "Mac OS X Server".)  If you picture the bad thing, your VM won't boot past the Apple logo.)

    See you soon,.

  • Re-install Snow Leopard to a notice of Imac I3 mid-2010?

    Hello

    I have already received some good answers in another thread, but it had a different title, so I thought that I post here and maybe some members will more experience with this:

    I just bought a used Imac which is currently being shipped to me.  Here are the specs: mid-2010 21.5 inches screen, model A1311, series: W8114294DAS, Intel Core I3 3.06 ghz processor.

    He will come running to El Capitan, but they advised me to wipe the drive and reinstall the original operating system, which is the snow leopard, and then upgrade from there to El Capitan, with my own Apple ID. However, it seems to be difficult with this particular model. If the computer is initially supplied with Snow Leopard 10.6.4. My drive of detail might not work for the re - install.  I was told that Apple would be able to ship me a custom. I've also read about yet another thread that maybe these models came with a slightly different version of Snow Leopard, and this is why the retail CD may not work, even if the computer came with version 10.6.3. and it would be better to get a custom. Is this true?

    Then there may be a problem with an update of the firmware that the computer may or may not have and which could cause problems (not allow Snow Leopard install at all, or instead to install Lion). Is it possible to say if he had this update and maybe disable it before attempting to erase and install Snow Leopard?

    Does anyone have advice/stories to share before I actually try it? Or what would be the best way to go about this? I thought that I would try my SL CD detail first, and I hope that it will work. Otherwise, I could order the CD on measure and try this one. If I can't erase, at least I didn't damage, but what happens if I erase the disc, but then failed to install Snow Leopard? I was left with a blank computer. Or I would be able to install it once the disc has been erased?

    Someone also said using SuperDuper may erase the disc elsewhere or at least to make a back-up? I have not used before. There is no personal information on the computer again, I would try to re - install before anything else, so I just need a way to install El Capitan under my Apple ID, then I'll be able to install updates, or even a new operating system, as it becomes available.

    Is there a risk to try to use my SL CD detail if it allows me to erase and install (such as the installation of the 'wrong' version of Snow Leopard)?

    Here is the link to the original thread: purchases used Imac tips?

    Thanks for any idea!

    You can try this much easier.

    1 - Connect to App store with your apple ID.

    2 - install download 10.11 - he will say that you have already installed just 10.11 to proceed.

    3. create a usb installation program.

    4 - start the installer - erase hard drive and install a clean copy of 10.11

    5. place the iMac with your apple ID.

    Create an installer for OS X - Apple support bootable

    smtp_tls_mandatory_protocols =! SSLv2! SSLv3

    smtp_tls_protocols =! SSLv2! SSLv3

  • Format and install Snow Leopard on Mac Mini

    Hello

    • I have a Mac Mini
    • Using boot camp, I have a Win10 partition which is now, the entire hard drive.  Really.
    • I have the installation of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.3) DVD
    • I directly connect the optical drive and a wired keyboard to the system
    • Start by pressing the [CTRL] key.
    • Download the white screen with the Apple logo in the middle of it.
    • .. then nothing.  He's here.  After 10 minutes, I pull the plug and restart the Windows partition and return to the slaughter of these discussion forums for clues.

    Issues related to the:

    1. How do I FORMAT and INSTALL Snow Leopard on the Mac Mini or m, I was too impatient after the [Ctrl] restart using the OS X DVD? 
    2. Is there an external utility that I should get to format the drive?
    3. I can do this in steps - can I install OS X on an external HD and then use it for the crater / rebuild the primary drive?

    Input greatly appreciated!

    Rade

    usually it is booting by pressing the C key to start from the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive.

    or start by pressing the Option key to get a list of the bootable devices that you can choose from.

    See <Startup for Mac - Apple Support combinations>

    NOTE: This does not imply that you run your Mac mini Snow Leopard.  I guess that your wording she used to run Snow Leopard, and that your Mac mini still has a DVD/CD player are good signs.

  • Three beeps when trying to install snow leopard

    Hey guys, this imac has el capitan, I am trying to reinstall snow leopard but I get 3 beeps. This research, I came across info suggesting either bad ram or I'm going to need at least a 10.6.7 to a flash drive as suggested in this thread here: three beeps when trying to install snow leopard

    I have the original disc from apple with 10.6.3. Possible to use this disc or my only option would be to try to get an OS x 10.6.7 on a USB? If so, I just found the 10.6.7 here: *.

    I have it on my windows desktop. I guess my next step should be to install on a bootable flash drive. So yes, I have a 16 gb flash drive that I use for windows, do I need to reformat for mac first and then copy the dmg file downloaded to it?

    < link published by host >

    You're right, three beeps point to a problem with the RAM. The first thing to do is to remove and reinstall ensure that it is firmly in place. If not, then replace the RAM, if you bought it from Crucial or OWC then the RAM has a lifetime warranty.

  • Can I install Snow Leopard on a Mac Mini 2008

    Hello.

    I have a Mac Mini 2008 with the info printed on the envelope:

    Mini Mac 2.53/2X2G/320/SDI/AP/BT

    Model no. A1283 2008

    I tried to install Snow Leopard using the gray installation disc supplied with my Macbook Pro.

    It didn't work, probably because the drive is linked to my MBP (I guess).

    So now I think ordering setup of Snow Leopard on the Apple store instead:
    http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/MC573Z/A/Mac-OS-x-106-Snow-Leopard

    But I'm not 100% sure if the previous failure, I had was really just because of the gray drive or the Mac Mini 2008 does not support Snow Leopard.

    Hope someone can give me the answer, so I'm not an unnecessary purchase.

    Thank you!

    This is because the gray disc is specific to your model of MacBook Pro. Any Mac that has an Intel processor, at least 1 GB of RAM and running 10.4 or 10.5 can run 10.6.

    External DVD USB drives are cheap. Usually $20 for a good quality player. Just buy one of these at Best Buy or another store and use it to install Snow Leopard. Then you also have a drive for something else that you have on the disk.
