git clone https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX.git

cd Docker-OSX

docker build -t docker-osx .

docker run --privileged -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix docker-osx

# press ctrl G if your mouse gets stuck

Start the same container later (persistent disk)

# look at it
docker ps --all --filter "ancestor=docker-osx"

# boot my old one
docker start $(docker ps -q --all --filter "ancestor=docker-osx")

Additional Boot Instructions


# Boot the macOS Base System

# Click Disk Utility

# Erase the biggest disk

# Partition that disk and subtract 1GB and press Apply

# Click Reinstall macOS

Wipe old images

# WARNING deletes all old images, but saves disk space if you make too many containers
docker system prune --all
docker image prune --all

Instant OSX-KVM in a BOX!

This Dockerfile automates the installation of OSX-KVM inside a docker container.

It will build a 32GB Mojave Disk.

You can change the size and version using build arguments (see below).

This file builds on top of the work done by Dhiru Kholia and many others on the OSX-KVM project.

Custom Build


docker build -t docker-osx:latest \
--build-arg VERSION=10.14.6 \
--build-arg SIZE=200G

docker run --privileged -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix docker-osx:latest

Todo:

# persistent disk with least amount of pre-build errands.
