OSX-KVM

A simple flake.nix to setup a macOS virtual machine based on https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM

Usage

mkdir macos
cd macos
nix run github:ngi-nix/OSX-KVM

Headless mode

After the machine is set up, edit ./settings.json and set headless to true.

Installing macOS

When booted into the VM, click on Disk Utility. Search for the disk with 64GB (or your configured amount) and click Erase. Leave the options at their default values, then click erase.

Once that's done, click exit and go to Reinstall macOS. The instructions should be straightforward: click continue and agree, then select your disk.

Additional options

You can change the amount of CPU cores or RAM the machine uses by editing the settings.json generated after first launch.
