This method should work in VMware Player also, but I prefer workstation because of Snapshot feature. I don’t think you would face any issues on other types of Intel processors, but make sure you have Hardware Virtualization Technology (VT), 64 Bit, and Core2duo or later supported processor. I’m not sure about AMD processor users. Someone please try and update in comments area for AMD processor with Lion on VMware.
What You Need?
- VMware workstation 7
- Lion OS X bootable VMDK file created from original installation medium (DVD or ISO file) – Check this guide and make this bootable image as described.
- Additional Files (Click here to download) – Its a zipped file from two sets of files and a darwin.iso file.
One for patch your VMware software to support Mac OS X server guest ( Original Source), second one with pre configured Virtual machine files (Original source) and darwin.iso file to install VMware tools on guest to get more screen resolutions and VMware shared folders. - Check the VT in your host BIOS as shown here with some tools.
- Just little bit time to read the complete guide
