I have followed these steps, as well as about 6 other sets from other locations. These are by far the most concise. I am trying to build a MOJAVE.ISO file so that I can stand up a second VM (the one I am on now is HIGH SIERRA 10.13). I have the FULL 6.05GB Mojave Installer.app file. Followed the steps (even the corrections posted) and have the MOJAVE.ISO file. Placed on the datastore for the ESXI server (which has a 10.6, 10.8, 10.13 installation already). When I boot the new VM with the MOJAVE.ISO file as the boot drive. I get a black screen with a WHITE 'NO' symbol. After about 10-15 seconds, it goes the EFI BOOT screen. Any ideas? It acts as if the ISO is not bootable. I did one of these yesterday (another set of instructions) for SIERRA 10.12, and it booted first time, and allowed the install. Thanks, BH |
thanks, changed that https://poweruprecipe989.weebly.com/gpt-website-php-script-rarbg-mirror.html. |
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution? I'm using a Macmini7,1 with ESXi 6.7 U2. |
This won't work on macOS Catalina as step 3 will fail to reformat (Erase) the temp file. |
