There are three different versions of Hackboot we'll need to use two of them in this guide. To help Mountain Lion start, you'll need to use Olarila's Hackboot CD. Hackboot 1 / Hackboot 2: Even though it's called a "bootable DVD", the Olarila version of OS X Mountain Lion still can't boot in Virtualbox by itself.In the past, we've used the iAtkos distro for this, but iAtkos hasn't updated for Mountain Lion yet, so I used the "OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion bootable DVD for Intel PCs", by Olarila. I won't go into details, but you can download these copies from about any bittorrent website by using a bittorrent client (it's about 4.5 GB in size). Instead, you'll have to rely on pirated "bootable DVD" copies of Mountain Lion, also known as "distros". Mountain Lion bootable DVD : Unfortunately, the standard method for installing OS X Mountain Lion on PCs (which uses a paid copy of the Mountain Lion installer) doesn't work with Virtualbox.Virtualbox : This virtualization suite is free, and though it doesn't offer official support for Mac OS X, it works well enough.
