With the Xcode beta installed, everything works as intended (but if you can find a way to get this working without installing a 33GB app that takes an hour-plus to install, I'd love to know about it). When I've tried this without Xcode installed, macOS has tried (and failed) to download extra software to make it work-sort of like how macOS needs to download additional software the first time you use Rosetta. If you're looking to virtualize Ventura on top of Monterey, you'll want to install and run the beta version of Xcode 14 from Apple's developer site before you start. The ambiguity of that last statement is I did that awhile before writing this comment and I don’t recall what I booted into first, only that it worked and was not hard to figure out what to do at that point.If you want to virtualize macOS Monterey on top of macOS Monterey, you won't have to download anything else. Installation will continue, or you will boot into the OS or get the Recovery Utilities menu (where macOS can be reinstalled from or Disk Utilities run). If the recovery partition isn’t present and valid, these instructions won’t work.Ĭlick the 2nd entry, you should see (and then click): If the 2nd partition isn’t the recovery partition, look under the paths in the list to see if one of them is it. The second PCI path is probably to the recovery partition, the one you need to boot from. The first PCI path in the list is probably the boot partition that doesn’t contain bootable firmware.

You should see two entries in a list (they are cryptic looking PCI bus paths). Select Boot Maintenance Manager and click. You’ll be brought into an EFI text-mode GUI.

I was able to fix the UEFI problems as follows ( credit to techrechard website):
