Finishing Up

Setting the default boot device

Once macOS is succesfully installed, you can select the macOS partition on the boot screen (OpenCore), with ctrl+enter to set it as the default boot device. That means it will boot up the VM without booting the macOS Installer. This will prevent OpenCore from default booting the installer.

Changing VM settings

Here are some guides on how to change the VM settings to best fit your needs:

• add memory and change cpu core counts
• set up bridged networking
• add passthrough hardware (for GPUs and Sound Cards),
• or use sound without a sound card
• tweak the screen resolution
• turn off verbose

Optimizing

Troubleshooting

If the mouse is not aligned properly, edit the basic.sh file and change -usb -device usb-kbd -device usb-tablet \ to -usb -device usb-kbd -device usb-mouse \ or the other way around.

If you get an error that says access denied, run sudo ./basic.sh which will give it admin privelages.

If you get an error that looks like:

Requested operation is not valid: Setting different SELinux label on /opt/dir/OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM/firmware/OVMF_VARS-1024x768.fd which is already in use
