# macOS-Simple-KVM Documentation to set up a simple Q35 VM based in QEMU, accelerated by KVM. Better instructions will be available in the future, but for now, here's how to get started: ## Dependencies You need to have `qemu`, `python` and the KVM extensions installed for this project. ## Step 1 Run `jumpstart.sh` to get some basic installation media for macOS. ## Step 2 Create an empty hard disk using `qemu-img` ``` qemu-img create -f qcow2 MyDisk.qcow2 64G ``` and add it to the end of `basic.sh` ``` -drive id=SystemDisk,if=none,file=MyDisk.qcow2 \ -device ide-hd,bus=sata.4,drive=SystemDisk \ ``` Then run `basic.sh` to start the machine and install macOS. ## Step 3 Look at the `docs` folder for more information on adding passthrough hardware, set up tunnel networking, and enable sound features.
