PVE Guest MacOS 13 Venture Setup
From WikiMLT
Proxmox Setup and MacOS Installation
Great manual provided by i12bretro which I've used to install MacOS 13 Venture:
- YouTube: Running a MacOS Monterey VM in ProxMox VE (also much comments about GPU PT are provided there)
- Guide: Running a MacOS Monterey VM in ProxMox VE (local copy of the guide)
In addition to the manual above: Currently I'm using Spice/QXL for display driver, and because there are not guest tools for MacOS, I'm attaching an USB Bluetooth via the Linux's Spice client that is attached to the MacOS guest, hen I'm using this Bluetooth to attach audio device, thus I'm having audio via SPICE. I'm needing it, because otherwise the videos in the Safari browser are not playable, but I'm actually need that for browser compatibility tests of a web page.
Below is shown my final configuration file.
