warning: host doesn't support requested feature

Operating system

Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

Description

I'm trying to install macOS (any version) and when I get to the step where the Apple logo appears, it gets stucked there. I've tried changing the version and, since I'm quite a newbie, I've tried changing the privileges as it was explained in the FAQ.
I don't know how to proceed or what should I do and, for this reason, I would greatly appreciate any kind of help.

btw, I'm trying to intall it in Portainer in a OMV server.

From the logs it seems your CPU, the Intel Pentium G3220, is missing a lot of CPU instructions that macOS needs.

So my best guess as to why it freezes is that you need a more recent CPU. You can try to set VERSION: "catalina" to use an even older version of macOS, but if that also doesnt work then there is not much we can do.

Okay, thanks for your help.
I will try to do that or if it still doesn't work I will refresh my computer.

Same issue with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700U on Gentoo Linux, Kernel 6.11.8, Docker 27.3.1.

After image verification, these are the errors:

To be clear, failed to load Boot0001 is not an error. A perfectly working boot looks like this:

If it freezes at the Apple Logo and you see a lot of host doesn't support requested feature messages, it seems like your CPU is missing certain instructions that macOS needs.

It's not freezing at the Apple logo. It gives me an unexpected error (MacOS X text error) after the Apple logo w/ progress bar fills up.

[kroese]

@uforia Can you try if it works when you set:

environment:
  CPU_CORES: "1"

[uforia]

That seems to be a viable workaround solve the booting and installation. After installation, I switched back to 4 cores and it seems to work now.
