PREBUILT MAC OS VMWARE HOW TO
Any advise or direction on how to resolve this would be great. I have tried to search for it and unable to find the solution for this. Afterwards, I added the files to the MAC and tried to do an import, when doing the import I get a hard drive error. Since I didn't want to purchase VMFusion for the MAC, I installed VirtualBox and tried to utilize the VM directly, which failed by giving me an error stating that some hardware change was done.Īfter researching the web for a while, I was able to figure out that I need to go to the Windows Machine and from the command line export it out so VB could load it.
When I built this VM at work it was done using VMPlayer (latest version).
