📌 Requirements

Since macOS Monterey, your host must have a working TSC (timestamp counter). Otherwise, if you assign multiple cores to the VM, macOS may crash due to time inconsistencies. To check if your host is compatible, run the following command in Proxmox:

dmesg | grep -i -e tsc -e clocksource

✅ Expected Output (for working hosts):

clocksource: Switched to clocksource tsc

❌ Problematic Output (for broken hosts):

tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed
clocksource: Switched to clocksource hpet

🛠 Possible Fixes

1. Disable "ErP mode" and all C-state power-saving modes in your BIOS. Then power off your machine completely and restart.
2. Try forcing TSC in GRUB:
   • Edit /etc/default/grub and add:

     clocksource=tsc tsc=reliable

   • Run update-grub and reboot (This may cause instability).
3. Verify the TSC clock source:

   cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

   The output must be tsc.

🔍 Troubleshooting

❌ High Sierra & Below - Recovery Server Could Not Be Contacted

If you encounter this error, you need to switch from HTTPS to HTTP in the installation URL:

1. When the error appears, leave the window open.

2. Open Installer Log (Window > Installer Log).

3. Search for "Failed to load catalog" → Copy the log entry.

4. Close the error message and return to macOS Utilities.

5. Open Terminal, paste the copied data, and remove everything except the URL (e.g., https://example.sucatalog).

6. Change https:// to http://.

7. Run the command:

   nvram IASUCatalogURL="http://your-http-url.sucatalog"

8. Quit Terminal and restart the installation.

Reference & More Details

❌ Problem for GPU Passthrough

In some environments it is necessary to segment the IOMMU Groups to be able to pass the GPU to the VM.

1. Add the content pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction pci=nommconf in the file /etc/default/grub at the end of the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT;
2. After changing the grub file, run the command update-grub and reboot your PVE.
