Originally created by @kurbar on GitHub (Sep 23, 2024).

Doing this all on an Ubuntu 24.04 server.

Steps

  1. Cloned this repo
  2. Built a base Sonoma image - docker build -t docker-osx:sonoma --build-arg SHORTNAME=sonoma --build-arg SIZE=30G .
  3. Build a VNC image from the created base image - docker build -t docker-osx:sonoma-vnc -f vnc-version/Dockerfile --build-arg SHORTNAME=sonoma --build-arg SIZE=30G --build-arg BASE_IMAGE=docker-osx:sonoma .
  4. started a container from said image - docker run -d -it --name osx-sonoma --device /dev/kvm --device /dev/snd -p 8888:5999 -p 50922:10022 --privileged docker-osx:sonoma-vnc
  5. Opened an SSH tunnel from local computer to proxy VNC port
  6. Successfully accessed Sonoma from VNC
  7. Created new APFS partition of larger QEMU disk
  8. Reinstalled Sonoma via Recovery
  9. Tried to boot from newly created and installed partition

image

Did the same steps with Ventura and that installation worked.

Having the same problem. Ventura works just fine, but Sonoma keeps rebooting

I think I got Sonoma working now by using the following run command:

docker run -d -it --name osx-sonoma --device /dev/kvm --device /dev/snd -p 8888:5999 -p 50922:10022 -e CPU='Haswell-noTSX' -e CPUID_FLAGS='kvm=on,vendor=GenuineIntel,+invtsc,vmware-cpuid-freq=on' -e RAM=4 --privileged docker-osx:sonoma-vnc

After installing Sonoma via recovery it booted up and seems to work properly.

How do you access vnc?
What's the pass i followed exactly as you do but unable to login maybe due to pass.
I tried complete install acc to official ended up with untitled disk and on same screen.

@wahaj4311

I was able to install both MacOS Ventura & MacOS Sonoma using these commands, and access them using VNC.

Do note that you'll need to change the external ports so that they will not collide (I'm using 5999 and 5998).

Not sure what port 50922 is for :/

MacOS Ventura (13)

docker run -i \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -p 5999:5999 \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e "SHORTNAME=ventura" \
    -e EXTRA="-display none -vnc 0.0.0.0:99,password=off" \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:latest

MacOS Sonoma (14)

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -p 5999:5999 \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e CPU='Haswell-noTSX' \
    -e CPUID_FLAGS='kvm=on,vendor=GenuineIntel,+invtsc,vmware-cpuid-freq=on' \
    -e MASTER_PLIST_URL='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/osx-serial-generator/master/config-custom-sonoma.plist' \
    -e "SHORTNAME=sonoma" \
    -e EXTRA="-display none -vnc 0.0.0.0:99,password=off" \

Out of curiosity, why vnc?
