What I'm going for should work the same even if these were two separate physical Mac minis, one with 10.11 and one with 10.15.

The fact that one is virtual doesn't really matter. I'm trying to run the netboot server on the 10.11 virtual machine, using images stored on the 10.15 machine. So ultimately what i'm trying to do is a lot simpler than it sounds. I want to store those images natively on the file system of the host machine, the 10.15 machine.Īccording to the NetBoot docs, you are supposed to be able to choose to store NetBoot Images, NetBoot User Data, or both, on any of your physical hard drives OR NFS shares. I do not want to store all 200+ GB of netboot images inside the virtual machine's disk image. So I set up a 10.11 virtual machine and installed the Server.app on that. On that OS, I ran everything normally without any problem.įor other reasons, I've had to upgrade that mini. My home server is a 2012 Mac mini formerly running 10.11. Although this system is totally dead on new machines, I still use it from time to time when I'm working on old systems. I'm a long time user of apple's NetBoot system.
