On Mac OS X:
- Download the OS X Yosemite from the App Store - DO NOT INSTALL IT.
- Download the CYI.tool.txt (CreateYosemiteInstaller) script:
Google Drive
Original Source (requires login - free) - The following assumes that "Install OS X Yosemite.app" and "CYI.tool.txt" files are at their standard locations, that is in the /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app the logged in users Downloads folder. From a console run the following commands:
mv ~/Downloads/CYI.tool.txt ~/Downloads/CreateYosemiteInstaller.tool chmod +x ~/Downloads/CreateYosemiteInstaller.tool ~/Downloads/CreateYosemiteInstaller.tool /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app ~/Downloads/Yosemite.dmg
- Copy the Yosemite.dmg file to the Windows PC where you're going to install VMware Workstation 11 or VMware Player 7
- Download and install VMware Workstation 11 (trial) or VMware Player 7:
VMware Workstation
VMware Player - Download and install the Mac OS X Unlocker for VMware V2:
Google Drive
Original Source (requires login - free) - Unpack the Mac OS X Unlocker downloaded in the previous step and run the win-install.cmd as administrator.
- In VMware create a new virtual machine, install OS later. It should have at least 2 CPU's and at least 2 GB RAM. Remember to enable Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI for the Processors. Don't start the virtual machine just yet.
- Close VMware and go to the folder containing the newly created OS X virtual machine files. Open the .vmx file and add the following line:
smc.version = "0"
- Start VMware and mount the Yosemite.dmg in the virtual DVD-drive for the virtuel machine. You might have to show all files instead of just .iso files in the filetype dropdown.
- Start the OS X virtual machine and install normally.
- When installation is down, install the VMware tools which should be included in the Mac OS X Unlocker tools (darwin.iso in the version I had).
