In addition, it requires that you do not in any way modify the operating system code. Overall, Apple currently allows for one installation of Snow Leopard Server per purchased license, and requires that the OS be installed on Apple hardware. Here is the full EULA for Snow Leopard Server:
Apple is fairly stringent on where they allow their OS to be used, so I went ahead and read the full EULA (that long legal paper we usually bypass and shrug off when installing most software) to see the details. Seeing this as a feature, I couldn't resist giving it a shot to see how it runs.īefore testing the software out, I made sure to check the EULA requirements for OS X Snow Leopard Server to see if this venture was acceptable. The update changes the developer references in the program, but also brings another bout of enhancements and optimizations, one of which is support for virtualizing OS X (Apple allows virtualization of the Server OS only). On Monday Oracle released version 3.2 of their VirtualBox software, which it now own as part of its recent acquisition of Sun Microsystems. The article has since been updated to reflect this clarification.
VIRTUALBOX DOES NOT ALLOW FOR 64 BIT MAC OS X MAC OS X
Apple's EULA for Snow Leopard allows the installation of one copy of OS X on one Apple-branded computer, while Snow Leopard Server allows additional copies of Mac OS X Server on the same computer, as long as you have licenses for each of these copies. Editor's Note: Since this story was posted, Oracle has updated its Web site to clarify that VirtualBox is for use only with Snow Leopard Server.
