Re: Mac Os X Lion Iso For Virtualbox
Merlina Magobet
I did exactly what the thread suggested, i downloaded mono, installed it, then downloaded the latest version of mission planner. I opened up terminal and the program starts to load, then it crashes. I am assuming this is because I am running the latest mountain lion and not lion. Anyone got a workaround?
My backup plan was to install XP on bootcamp, and then I discovered you need to run windows 7 on bootcamp, xp wont load. So then I tried to install Ubuntu, but there is no easy way of installing ubuntu on osx either. Anyone got any ideas on how to get this software working? I have about 3 days before my package arrives, (well supposidly, it only left San Diego today and is bound for Australia).
I haven't tried to run mission planner yet however I use VirtualBox to run my Windows 7 PC on my Mac Air. VirtualBox is free and easy to install and run. With the extensions it supports USB2 and I have not had any problems with running communications programs that use USB.
Please buy a copy of Windows 7 from a PC build store like PLE that will sell you an OEM version. It is only $120.00 or so it is not worth trying to use a pirated copy. You don't need the full retail version.
Can you get VMware Fusion? If so I've had no trouble running mission planner on a XP or Win7 vm in fusion. I have the 2012 mba and rmbp so there is a VMware bulletin on disabling "accelerate 3D" with Win7, but with a 2011 mba you shouldn't even have to do that.
