• First, you need to buy Mountain Lion (if you haven't bought it already). Go to ( not the App Store app), and search for 'Mountain Lion', and pay $20 for it.

• Wait 3 days. Even though they're just emailing you a PDF with a license code, it's done manually (so I'm told), so it really does take 1-3 business days to get to you. • In the App Store app, click 'Redeem' (top right on the main page), and paste in the code. Download the Mountain Lion Installer. On OS X 10.9, you'll get a warning that you can't downgrade, which is fine. • Install VirtualBox 4.3.12, or whatever the latest version is. • Make a new VM image.

1- Download Mac OS; 2- Create Mac OS Virtual Machine; 3- Configure. The Mac OS file downloaded by you in the above step is a complete operating system. VBoxManage modifyvm 'Your-VM-Name' --cpuidset 00006e5.

You can use either 'Mac OS X (64 bit)' or the 10.8-specific one -- they both seem to work. Turn the video memory up to 128 MB -- at the default of 10 MB, it'll boot but you won't be able to see anything. (I also suggest giving it more than 2 GB of RAM, and more than 1 CPU.) • To SATA port 1 (the first free one), attach 'InstallESD.dmg' from inside the Mountain Lion Installer package (right-click in the finder to show the package contents, and drag the.dmg to the file-picker dialog in VirtualBox). VirtualBox 4 supports DMG files natively, and InstallESD.dmg is bootable. Check 'Live CD/DVD'.

• Boot the image. When the first menu appears, open Disk Utility and 'Erase' your virtual hard disk. Quit Disk Utility. • Install OS X on the virtual hard disk. (Note: don't bother entering your AppleID during the installation process -- it doesn't seem to accept it there. But once you're done installing, you can run the App Store app and enter your AppleID to download your purchased apps just fine.) • Be sure to detach InstallESD.dmg before rebooting.

(Simply moving it lower than the hard disk in the boot order setting doesn't seem to do anything.) • To increase the screen resolution to 1440x900, was very helpful. (Setting Graphics Mode did not work for me.).
