macOS does not supprort every CPU supported by VirtualBox. If the macOS Base
System does not boot, try applying different CPU profiles to the virtual
machine with the following command:
machine. First, while the VM is powered off, set the guest's CPU profile to the
host's CPU profile then try to boot the virtual machine:
${low_contrast_color}VBoxManage modifyvm \"\${vm_name}\" --cpu-profile host${default_color}
${low_contrast_color}VBoxManage modifyvm \"\${vm_name}\" --cpuidremoveall${default_color}
If booting fails, try assigning each of the preconfigured CPU profiles:
${low_contrast_color}VBoxManage modifyvm \"\${vm_name}\" --cpu-profile \"\${cpu_profile}\"${default_color}
Available CPU profiles:

Remove existing CPU profiles with the following commands:
${low_contrast_color}VBoxManage modifyvm \"\${vm_name}\" --cpu-profile host${default_color}
${low_contrast_color}VBoxManage modifyvm \"\${vm_name}\" --cpuidremoveall${default_color}
If booting fails after trying each preconfigured CPU profile, the host's CPU
requires specific CPUID settings to boot macOS.
