Now that you have created the VM, it should appear in the list on the left. #for those who said 'who writes malware in python anyway?' Step 4: Changing the Settings Before You Start the VM Note: python comes installed by default on OSX so writing a malware in python DOES make sense. You just want to test some exploits or the malware you wrote in python. If you don't know what you are doing, choose VDI and dynamically allocated (on next page). Choose the option to create a new virtual hard drive and the kind of drive you want to create here depends on you. Now, you will have to create a virtual hard drive for the OS. (Don't listen to me I have lots of it to spare). On, the next page, you will be asked to assign memory to it. Choosing 32-bit will result in a critical 'Guru Meditation' error later on.

If your version of Virtualbox asks you to choose between 64-bit and 32-bit, be sure to choose 64-bit. Give your new virtual machine a name, and choose 'Mac OS X' for the OS Type. To create a virtual machine, open up Virtualbox and click 'New' on the upper left. As easy as that.ĭownload the Yosemite image from the following link. If not, download it using the link below and just install. I assume if you are using this guide you already have Virtual Box up and running. I am not an expert in malware so better be safe than sorry. I hope that keeps the malware within the virtual environment. Note: I have been warned that the images available for download are almost always malware infested, so I would suggest keeping your VM in a virtual Lan network only, no shared folders or anything with your host OS. So, in this guide I take you step by step to creating your OSX Yogemite VM. We at nullbyte should be prepared for anything and everything. We all know Linux rocks (gets acknowledgement from the crowd), but there are morons out there, multiplying at a never before seen rate, who use OSX. I was on our new #nullbyte IRC channel when someone told me how tedious it is to install an OSX Virtual Machine on Virtual Box (I think it was wawa).
