👍 Watch how to install MacOS on an Oracle VirtualBox virtual machine. The Apple policy is that MacOS should not be used with hardware from other manufacture. This post contains the steps I extracted from various resources in order to get a fully working High Sierra install within VirtualBox 5. Step 1: Download The High Sierra Installer. To do this, you need to be on an existing macOS system. I was unable to find the download within the App Store itself, but following this link opened the App Store at the correct page. Download MacOS High Sierra VMDK. You have to get macOS High Sierra VMDK in the link supplied. Please do not skip this step because it'll help you to successfully install macOS Sierra on VirtualBox on Windows 10 PC. Minimum 2 GB memory (Recommended 8GB or higher) Minimum 2 cores of processors (Recommended 4 cores or higher) Hard disk free space 20 GB (Recommended 100GB or higher).
I am running VirtualBox 6.0.10 on an iMac (Mojave) and I prepared a macOS High Sierra VM from the ground up with VirtualBox. The VM runs fine, but I am not able to update the guest OS from 10.13.4 to 10.13.6.The reason for that, as far as I understood, is that the macOS update is installed onto the recovery partition of the VM hard drive and the VM should boot from this partition to finish the update. Unfortunately, the UEFI boot settings of VirtualBox seem to overrun the macOS settings and the system always boots the regular macOS partition. So each time I start the update from macOS, the reboot gives me an unaltered system.
While preparing the High Sierra VM, I had a hard time getting out of the UEFI shell and selecting the correct boot.efi in order to boot the system.
But now I want to get into the UEFI shell, then to the boot options. I found hints to press F12 or fn-F12 'during boot' for getting into the shell, but I tried it several times to no avail. Also hitting 'AnyKey' during boot, as suggested elsewhere (very funny), did not help.
At what time during boot exactly should I press what key?
Are there other options to accomplish that?I am stuck because the settings seem to indicate that the USB is open (unfiltered) and the USB memory stick's LED does light up like there is activity when I have restarted the VM then insert the memory stick.
There is a VERR_PDM_NO_USB_PORTS error message but the device driver on Windows says it is up to date.I have Windows10 Home 64bit installed on VirtualBox 6.0.8r130520 (Qt5.6.3) and it does NOT recognize that I've got a USB drive. I set up the filter under 'Devices->USB Settings->USB Ports' as a USB 1.0 device (for the sake of universal compatibility).

I have a USB filter on that allows any device to be connected (I plan to use the filter to allow ONLY the specified USB sticks, but that comes later).

It does not show up even though in VirtualBox running Windows 10 even though it DOES show up if I use it on the Mac side (unless I have tried to use it on the VirtualBox side first). I have no way to eject the memory stick since, at this point, it does not show up on either the Mac or VirtualBox/Windows side.
