SOLVED: Check if all files in your ‘firmware’ folder are present. I read somewhere else that ‘git clone’ command did not copy the OVMF_VARS-1024×768.fd file for someone and when I checked, it was the same case for me. Although, I did find it in the backup firmware folder, which the tutorial had us make initially. Copying that into the actual firmware folder resolved it for me

SOLVED: I generated a new XML using the “./make.sh –add” command and deleted the downloaded generic XML file they provided. This resolved it for me

Try:
pip install click requests

Got a solution?

Yeah, I’d love to but it doesn’t get to step 1.
It gives me this:
qemu-system-x86_64: -drive id=SystemDisk,if=none,file=MyDisk.qcow2: Could not op’: No such file or directory
./basic.sh: line 30: -device: command not found
Anyone know why this is giving me this error?

ok, sounds like my problem — at least you answered, huh?
I hate dead sites.

Download the generic XML we provide here. Find and replace all instances of YOURPATH with the absolute path that corresponds to your VM’s firmware and image files. After you’ve edited the xml, run virsh define OSX.xml (use sudo if your URI is qemu:///system instead of qemu:///session) in the same working directory you saved your XML to.

Restart Libvirt by running systemctl restart libvirtd.service virtlogd.service and open up virt-manager. You should have a VM named OSX under the Qemu Connection in the main window.

If you’ve already extensively customized your qemu script, you can run ./make.sh –add. This script is included in the repo. Edit the XML before defining, using uuidgen to create a new UUID to avoid issues with apple ID. The xml we provide will do so automatically.

I have the VM working by loading from the terminal, but for the life of me, your directions here are not clear.
I have edited the xml file downloaded, put in the right path to the files and when I run sudo virsh define OSX.xml I get an error. It reads:
error: Failed to define domain from OSX.xml
error: (domain_definition):68: Specification mandates value for attribute data-pjax-transient

THIS IS YOUR XML file I am using. All I did to it was to put the correct path to the files in it as you say in the instructions! And yet you have an error in YOUR code. I am not an XML expert, nor do I know of one, nor do I know WHAT to do next.

Running the VM from the terminal line is inconvenient and more trouble than it’s worth as it still loads the clover boot and what it SHOULD do, maybe it will if I can ever get by this nonsense, is to load directly into the MacOS without even seeing clover any more.

Some help would be appreciated here.

And in fact, this same error pops up on a number of lines.
Looks to me like this file is pretty much worthless.
And that renders the ENTIRE DAY I have spent on this as wasted time. Because I CANNOT use this in this condition. And since I CANNOT proceed further, there’s no point in wasting more time unless you can explain HOW to make this file THAT YOU WROTE work.
