I have a great MacBook Pro with awesome retina display, but I mostly run Windows 7 on it through bootcamp. Given that I often have to make iOS related tests, and that switching back and forth between OSX and Windows 7 was quite painful, I decided to try to run OSX as a virtual OS within Windows instead of Windows as a virtual OS within OSX. If you want to do the same here are the simple things you need to do 1. Open regedit to export a backup of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet services AppleHFS and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet services AppleMNT 2. Keep regedit opened and delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet services AppleHFS and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet services AppleMNT 3. Reboot and make sure the OSX drive is not visible anymore as D: drive 4. Run in command line “C: Program Files Oracle VirtualBox VBoxManage.exe” internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename c: RawAppleDisk.vmdk -rawdisk.
PhysicalDrive0 5. Open VirtualBox, create a new type “Mac OS X” with version “Mac OS X (64-bit)” virtual machine. When asked to create a drive, select “Use an existing virtual hard drive file” and click the orange folder button, select the RawAppleDisk.vmdk that you created in step #4, it should be at the root of C: but you can move it anywhere you like before adding it to the virtual machine. Now your virtual machine should boot and run OS X as a virtual OS within Windows 7 running native on genuine Apple hardware You can learn more about VirtualBox guest limitations for OSX. And how to change the guest screen resolution.

When I rebooted, the drive no longer showed up in Windows, but when I booted the VM, I still got the waiting for root device message. I was really hopeful here as this was the first post I ran across that looked like it properly addressed the issue I’ve been facing with this. What’s really frustrating is that this all worked effortlessly with Snow Leopard. If you have any further ideas, I’d be truly grateful!
In a 'history of Office for Mac' slide it’s clear Microsoft is targeting its next Office for Mac release in 2015, despite rumors the company would. It has been four years since the last major version of Office for Mac, but the next version will look identical to its Windows counterpart. Microsoft is planning to re-design the entire user interface of Office for Mac to align it with the look and feel of Office on Windows. Has published a number of slides from an internal Microsoft presentation detailing the next release of Office for Mac.
I am booting using plop into a VMware Workstation 12 VM. Used Transmac to restore the image, replaced the kernel. Everything goes fine until I get to the 'Still waiting on the root device' message.

I’m on Windows 7 SP1 and VirtualBox 4.3.6. I am also running MacDrive, but I disabled it to no avail. It’s like Windows still has hold of the partition somewhere and won’t let go. Yes it succeeded. Microsoft word for mac crashes when printing. I also already have a raw device created the same way, but I restricted the partitions to 1 and 2 which are the GPT and the Mac HFSJ partitions.
I didn’t save the output from the Vboxmanage command, but it just said something along the lines of the VMDK being successfully created. When I go to boot the VM, it definitely begins accessing the HD and then gets to a certain point and then I get the message “still waiting for root device.” I’m confident that the raw device is OK, esp. Since it is the same raw device that worked before in Snow Leopard.
I’m just wondering about drive locking and Mountain Lion. I have successfully installed a Mountain Lion VM using a raw device that references an external USB drive. It gave me the exact same error at first.
But figuring this was some sort of an exclusive lock type of problem, I just told VirtualBox the the external USB drive was its exclusively and voila, the VM instantly continued booting, going beyond the “still waiting for root device” error message. Hope this info.
