Hack VMware fusion to allow for the installation of mac osx

Vmware was bitching about my snow leopard install so I ran through the following to get it to shut up. NOTE: this does not modify the snow leopard server install disk in anyway so I think it avoids any license disagreements with apple.

sudo bash
cd “/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/isoimages”
mkdir original
mv darwin.iso tools-key.pub *.sig original
perl -n -p -e ’s/ServerVersion.plist/SystemVersion.plist/g’ < original/darwin.iso > darwin.iso
openssl genrsa -out tools-priv.pem 2048
openssl rsa -in tools-priv.pem -pubout -out tools-key.pub
openssl dgst -sha1 -sign tools-priv.pem < darwin.iso > darwin.iso.sig
for A in *.iso ; do openssl dgst -sha1 -sign tools-priv.pem < $A > $A.sig ; done
exit
