          <p><em>This is an addendum to the tutorial on installing a <a href="https://youtu.be/uvXH1fRq1Eg" target="_blank">MacOS Big Sur VM on Proxmox VE</a>. The steps below will allow the VM to boot without having the OpenCore .iso mounted, as we&#39;ll be copying the EFI boot files onto the virtual hard disk.</em></p>

<h2>Configuring Booting Without OpenCore Mounted</h2>

<ol>
	<li>Log into the MacOSBigSur VM</li>
	<li>Launch a web browser and download the KVM OpenCore EFI folder <a href="https://github.com/thenickdude/KVM-Opencore/releases" target="_blank">Download</a></li>
	<li>Start LaunchPad from the dock</li>
	<li>Search terminal &gt; Click Terminal to launch it</li>
	<li>Run the following commands in the terminal window
	<div class="codeBlock CMD">git clone https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI<br />
	cd MountEFI<br />
	chmod +x MountEFI.command<br />
	./MountEFI.command</div>
	</li>
	<li>Enter the number that corresponds to the OS11 drive created during the installation &gt; Press Enter</li>
	<li>Open a Finder window</li>
	<li>Navigate to the mounted EFI location</li>
	<li>If an existing EFI folder exists, rename the it to EFI.orig</li>
	<li>Copy the KVM OpenCoreEFI folder downloaded earlier to the mounted EFI partition</li>
	<li>Once the EFI folder is copied, shutdown the VM</li>
	<li>Click the MacOSBigSur VM &gt; Select Hardware from the left sub-navigation menu</li>
	<li>Click the OpenCore Hard Disk to select it &gt; Click Detach</li>
	<li>Click the detached OpenCore Hard Disk to select it again &gt; Click Remove</li>
	<li>Right click the MacOSBigSur VM in the left navigation pane &gt; Start</li>
	<li>Click console in the left sub-navigation menu to verify the VM still boots into Big Sur without the OpenCore disc image mounted</li>
