Thanks - but I dont see scripts for Yosemite - which to use ? Jerry

I have an image of OS X that I made with from the physical disk using dd. When I boot with libvirt-manager and environment I get an error. no bootable option or device was found. Using CentOS 8 host - I tried fdisk image.img and I no longer see any options there to toggle bootable partition option. How can I boot OSX ? Thanks, Jerry

I am trying to use CentOS 8 host to boot an image (OS X) that I created using dd. First I tried fdisk -l image_file.img - all looks good so I did fdisk image_file.img - this works - but seems in CentOS 8 fdisk there is no longer a toggle bootable flag option. How do I do that ? Thanks, Jerry

Is booting a new centos virtual image (centos 7.7 host) supported with EFI under 7.7 If so how. Last time on 7.6 it was a technology preview or something. Thanks Jerry

Hi I have configured KVM with Fedora Core 13 by enabling the KVM virtualization option while installing OS. I have successfully created the guest OS by using the virt-install API /usr/sbin/virt-install --name centos5 --ram 512 --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/ centos.img,size=5 --network network:default --accelerate --vnc -c /tmp/CentOS-5.3-i386-bin-DVD.iso I am able to login to the guest OS

I am trying to play with qemu uefi booting... I found the OVMF package and installed it. I added the "-bios /usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd" to my command line. when running it says cannot load "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd" The file is there. I'm trying this on CentOS 7.6 How do I correctly boot UEFI with qemu ? Thanks Jerry

Hi All - I have a CentOS 7 (image) that is fully updated. However its not UEFI. Is there a way to use an older computer and migrate my current image to be UEFI so this new UEFI only computer I have will boot. Was hoping to not have to completely re-install and setup for my needs. Jerry
