  • Content Caching in macOS VM under Proxmox
    2 projects | /r/Proxmox | 19 Dec 2022
    Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this - I have searched the whole Internet and cannot find any help, and Hackintosh community laughed me off for using macOS VMs at all. I have a macOS (tried Mojave 10.14.6, Catalina 10.15.7 and Big Sur 11.6.2) virtual machine created using this guide: https://www.nicksherlock.com/2020/06/installing-macos-big-sur-on-proxmox/ (and the respective ones for Mojave and Catalina). My whole purpose of the VM is to serve as a local software update cache. But I cannot get Content Caching to work - it says "Registration Rejected" in the logs. I'm aware Apple blocks Content Caching from being used on virtual machines - however I have tried the kernel patch from https://github.com/ofawx/VmAssetCacheEnable and the other patch (for macOS 11.3 and newer) from https://github.com/acidanthera/RestrictEvents. Both do their job of erasing the VM compatibility block, and I do not get any related errors, but when I try to enable Content Caching, it says "Content Caching is temporarily unavailable" an in the Console logs it says "Failed to create context -44006" followed by "Registration Rejected".

    I would at least look around to see if your card needs any specific support, or ask someone who has more knowledge on Kepler (600 Series) hackintoshes other than me, but according to Dortainia, you'll need Lilu.kext & WhateverGreen.kext as well as a shikigva=40 boot flag.

    Check out this page for your Lilu.kext and this page for your WhateverGreen.kext. When using WG, try using the boot arguments shikigva=40 which will set your boardID as an iMac14,2 which helps with some nVidia Support. If that doesn't help, maybe use agdpmod=vit9696 which skips the boardID check altogether which has been known to fix black screens. Installing WhateverGreen, in general, will most likely solve your issue though.
