Навигация
С помощью решения VMware Fusion пользователи Mac могут выполнять ОС Windows и сотни других операционных систем одновременно с приложениями Mac без перезагрузки. Решение Fusion сочетает в себе удобство работы для частных пользователей и широкие возможности для ИТ-специалистов, разработчиков и организаций.
VMware Fusion: удобство и мощь
Выполнение практически любой ОС на Mac
Выполнение Windows на Mac — это только начало. VMware Fusion поддерживает сотни ОС (от малоизвестных дистрибутивов Linux до новейшего выпуска Windows 10), которые можно выполнять параллельно с новейшим выпуском macOS.
Подключение к VMware vSphere
Безопасное подключение к серверам vSphere, ESXi и серверам на платформе Workstation дает возможность запускать, контролировать и администрировать виртуальные машины и физические узлы. Благодаря общей платформе VMware виртуальные машины можно с легкостью переносить из ЦОД vSphere на настольный компьютер Mac, а затем выполнять во Fusion.
Возможности разработки и тестирования на любой платформе
С помощью Fusion можно без труда тестировать практически любые ОС и приложения на компьютере Mac. Это решение дает возможность создавать и тестировать приложения в изолированной среде, обеспечивая безопасное совместное использование локальных исходных файлов и папок. Fusion Pro теперь включает в себя API-интерфейс REST для интеграции с современными средствами разработки, такими как Docker, Vagrant, Ansible, Chef и другими, благодаря чему заказчики могут использовать все возможности VMware в современных адаптивных циклах разработки, ориентированных на принципы DevOps.
Разработка и демонстрация комплексных решений
Благодаря возможности выполнения всего стека виртуального облака на одном Mac архитекторы решений могут демонстрировать свои программные решения в режиме реального времени с безопасными точками отката, которые можно использовать для возврата к сохраненным конфигурациям. Продемонстрируйте все этапы работы вашего ПО, выполняя все его компоненты на одном ноутбуке.

Build Instructions Install Wine
To install wine on Linux:
• Follow the instructions found here
To Install wine on Mac:
• First install Homebrew (run this in Terminal):
• Then run this command to finish the setup:
• Once Homebrew is installed now wine can be installed:
**Note: If any errors occur, feel free to post comments and also look at this webpage for more help.
Download and Install vSphere Client
• Go to the ip address of the ESXi host. (EX: http://192.168.1.202/)
**Note: Ignore any security warnings that your browser might bring up.
• Download the vSphere client by clicking on the link. A .EXE file should start downloading.
• Run the installer (replace the directory path with the path to your .exe file):
• Follow all the instructions in the installer.
• If you get a error because the .NET framework needs to be installed I will post about how to fix that later.
• MOST of the time, a error will appear saying the the hcmon driver failed to install. DO NOT CLICK CANCEL.
• Navigate to the /.wine directory, and temporarily move it to your desktop. (Finder — Go — Go to folder —
• Now you can click cancel, the installer will say it failed to install, this is fine, close the installer.
• Now you can move your .wine folder back to its original place (/Users/[name]/.wine)
• The vSphere client should now be installed.
Run Client and Connect to Host
• In Terminal navigate to the folder where the client exe is located (not the installer):
• Then run the Client with this command: • If a screen opens up asking for a username and password then everything is working.
• In the Host Box, type the Host’s IP address (the one that we used to download the installer).
• Then put in your username and password (default username is «root»).
• If you are brought to a screen that asks about credentials and certificates, click Ignore.
• If all works, then the client should connect!
Virtual macOS: Use macOS Sierra on a Virtual Machine with VMWare
Whether you want to try out macOS, run Xcode or make a hackintosh you can use a virtual machine to get started on macOS. Remember the performance of macOS, particularly graphical support is very limited on a virtual machine so performance with graphical animations will be subpar compared to a real mac or hackintosh, but it will still get the job done.
This video guide will walk you through the steps to run macOS through a virtual machine on your Windows PC.
Step 1 – Install VMware Player
This is a free offered by VMWare you don’t need a licesne or pay up.
Step 2 – Download Torrenting Software
We’ll need to download torrenting software inorder to complete step 3. My favorite torrent program is QBitTorrent.
Step 3 – Torrenting Sierra VMWare Image
This is the torrent you want to use. Any VMWare Sierra imae will work however i prefer this one because it already has VMWare tools and Darwin set up allowing us to avoid those extra steps:
Use the Magnet link to torrent the VMWare image.
- Copy the following:
- Open QBitTorrent
- Click File
- Click Add Torrent Link…
- Click Download
Step 4 – Extracting the Image
When the torrenting is complete you will have a .rar file in your download folder. Uou will need to extract it’s contents using a program like WinRar
- Download WinRar
- Install Winrar.exe
- When done right click the downloaded torrent macOS Sierra v10.12 (16A323) Image For VMware [SadeemPC].rar and select Extract to… macOS Sierra v10.12 (16A323) Image For VMware [SadeemPC]
Step 5 – Run the Patcher
We will now enable VMWare to run macOS in a virtualized environment
- Open the extracted folder
- Open folder called VMWare Unlocker
- Run file Unlocker.exe
Step 6 – Enabling BIOS Settings
To run a virtual machine on your computer two settings in your motherboards BIOS must be set properly so restart your computer and enter your BIOS.
- Set Intel Virtualization : Enabled
- Set VT-d : Enabled
Step 7 – Start the Virtual Machine
Now it’s time to run the virtual machine it may take a minute or two to boot up.
- Open VMWare Player
- Click Open a Virtual Machine
- Navigate to the location of extracted torrent folder and open in
- Click Sierra folder
- Double Click macOS Sierra
- Click Play Virtual Machine
Step 8 – Changing Language
The language is set to non english in the VMWare image to change it to English:
- Open System Preferences
- Click Language & Region (flag icon in the first row)
- Click [+] button
- Select English U.S.
- Press the blue button
- Close System Preferences
- Press blue button when it prompts you to restart
- Virtual system will restart
Step 9 – Change Toolbar Color
The specific VMWare image has the dark menu bar enabled if you don’t like this you can disable it by:
- Opening System Preferences
- Click General at top left
- Uncheck Use dark menu bar and Dock
Done.

The password is 123. You’ll need to enter in 123 when you reach the sudo part of terminal if you are creating a hackintosh.
How To Install macOS Sierra on a Ryzen PC (Virtual Machine / VMWare)
This guide will show you the steps to install Sierra on a AMD Ryzen PC using a VMWare Virtual Machine. I’m making this guide for those who don’t have access to a Mac and need macOS to either try out for a bit or create a macOS boot loader installer for a AMD hackintosh build. There is another VMWare Sierra guide on this site, but with AMD system a modified VMWare image is required to even be able to boot macOS so this AMD VMWare guide has to be used instead.
Why not a High Sierra VM?
So getting High Sierra running as a virtual machine in Windows or Linux is actually pretty difficult with a Ryzen PC. Some will manage to get it working, butt not for others with there being all sorts of errors that can potentially popup on the screen. I actually spent half a day trying to get High Sierra working on VMWare player and wasn’t able to do it, so I had to resort to using Sierra, which I posted the steps for here. You can still use a Sierra VM to download High Sierra and create a High Sierra boot loader if you are trying to create a hackintosh.
AMD Ryzen Sierra VMWare Guide
Understand that even after you get macOS running, virtual performance with macOS is going to bad. There wont be able acceleration and on AMD machines it runs pretty pretty laggy, which is why it’s best to make a hackintosh if you want a smooth experience
Step 1: Torrent Sierra AMD VMWare Image
Credit goes to Shamme for providing the hackintosh community with this modified VMWare image. Any torrenting program is needed in order to download the VMWare image. My favorite torrent program is QBitTorrent.
- Download QBitTorrent
- Install QBitTorrent
- DownloadSierraAMD_VM.zip.torrent.zip
- Unzip SierraAMD_VM.zip.torrent
- Double-click or Open SierraAMD_VM.zip.torrent and initiate the torrent download
Step 2: Install VMWare Player
Step 3: Modify VMware VMX file for Sierra
- Open VMWare Player
- Click Create a New Virtual Machine
- Click I will install the operating system later and click Next
- Select Other under Guest Operating System
- Select Other 64-bit under version and click Next
- Change the default name if you want and click Next
- Select Store virtual disk as a single file
- Click Finish
- Highlight Memory column and change memory to atleast 2GB+ or 2048
- Highlight CD/DVD (IDE) and uncheck Connect at power on
- Click on Hard Disk (IDE)
- Click Remove at the bottom
- Click Add…
- Select Hard Disk and click Next
- Select SCSI and click Next
- Select Use an existing virtual disk and click Next
- Find whever you unzipped SierraAMD_VM from the download in Step 1
- Open SierraAMD_VM and double click macOS HD or click Open
- Click Finish
- Click Keep Existing Format
- Click OK
- Click Play virtual machine
- Press Enter
- Press Enter
- Virtual machine with macOS will now slowly boot..

Now that you have your virtual machine setup you are ready for the real deal if your goal is to make a working hackintosh. With an actual hackintosh you wont have any the of the performance drawbacks as a Virtual machine such as the lag or lack of video acceleration.
