Installation of HMC in virtual machine

1. Download image, HMC is an image after 8, there is no need to install it twice, and HMC is backward compatible, so it can be used in most cases after installing 8. Another advantage is that 8's Chinese interface translates well, so install 8.

two。 Download hmc.rom file (2 download beans)

Http://down.51cto.com/data/2336693

This file should be placed in the installation directory of the virtual machine.

3. New virtual machine, this process needless to say, like installing the Linux operating system, but requires a larger allocation of disk space, I allocated 100G, the hard disk requires SCSI, can not use HID, after 7.5, including 7.5 began to use SCSI.

No more pictures. It's very simple.

4. Modify the vmx file

Add a line bios440.filename = "hmc.rom" at the end

Save.

5. The image refers to the image you just downloaded and click to start the installation.
