🧵 So it turns out sharing files without #GuestExtensions between #macOS in #VirtulBox and #Linux as a host system is drop-dead easy.

You just switch on SMB file sharing in macOS (#Monterey in my case).

#Konqueror or other CIFS/SMB-enabled file tools can than access your virtual Mac effortlessly.

Simply reverse the game… not the host is the server, the guest OS is.

This of course works only in bridged network mode.

Funny that I didn't find this solution on the web.

🧵 So, #GuestExtensions fail to install on #macOS #Monterey and I don't know why. I disabled protection using csrutil but that didn't solve it.

I can set different screen resolutions with vboxmanage, but shared folders don't work, altough I can see my Samba server in the network, I can't see the vboxsrv server.

What to do now?

I need to user certain tools that only run on macOS or Windows, but they quit working in #Windows10 after recent updates (sic!) and I don't want to use #Windows11, not even in #VirtualBox.

And yes, running macOS in VirtualBox on #Linux is conflicting with #Apple's EULA.

🧵 …getting closer to #macOS #Monterey in #VirtualBox on #Linux. Failing to install #GuestExtensions now, dunno why yet.

It feels terribly laggy and the screen resolution without the extensions is a joke.

🧵 No success yet.

Parameter tweaking… trying to install #macOS #Monterey in #VirtualBox. So far, only macOS panics and constant reboots.

We’ve been doing more rural rides than biking into town lately. But current weather’s heat wave + steep hills of our rural routes led us to opt for biking into town yesterday instead, so we could cool off on the coastal trail. We’ll be biking to this spot (Window on the Bay Park in city of Monterey) on March 28 for next local No Kings Day.
