Easy to use all in one solution that can help you create and customize bootable USB or DVD images for your Hackintosh, in a streamlined manner

Pandora's Box is a minimalist yet very powerful OS X utility that can help you make your own OS X bootable DVDs and USBs, in order to update your Hackintosh to the latest OS X version, or to simply customize the installation.

Noteworthy is that, even though you can create bootable images for various architectures, Pandora's Box provides support only for 4 operating systems: Mavericks, Lion, Mountain Lion, and Yosemite.

Easy to use solution for creating custom OS X images and RecoveryHDs

The Pandora's Box capabilities are organized around 3 functions: creating the bootable image, running maintenance tasks after the installation, and making recovery hard drives.

This reflects in the app’s user interface, which is represented by a single window containing only three buttons: Create Installer, Create RecoveryHD, and Post Installation.

However, each time you launch any of these three procedures, Pandora's Box opens 3 other apps respectively (Hermes, Hera, and Zeus), designed to deal with each specific task. To learn all that you can achieve using each utility, make sure to read the built-in Help documentation.

Working with the Pandora's Box application proves to be fairly intuitive: to create your own installer, all you have to do is select the media type (USB or DVD), the OS X installer you want to employ as source, the target volume, and the bootloader you want to employ. Since most of the customization options are accessible via simple drop down menus, finding your way around is quite easy.

Make your own bootable USB and DVD OS X images, using an Apple installer of your choice

The same rules apply when running post installation maintenance tasks, or when you want to setup recovery HDs: get through each step, make the necessary adjustments, and the Pandora's Box applications take care of the rest.

To conclude, if you are looking for an all in one solution that can help you deal with creating custom OS X installations for your Hackintosh without having to deal with complex tools, the Pandora's Box utility certainly deserves your attention.

For long time users of the Apple Macintosh, the DOS environment might appear confusing at first. It helps to have experience with the System Terminal and the Command Line. Once set up however a simple shortcut will be all you need.

Installing

This guide will use the 0.74 Mac OSX version which is available for download. The 0.74 release is compiled as a Universal Binary, and will run on PowerPC and Intel based Macs. To install DOSBox, first expand the .ZIP file and copy the contents into a folder like DOSBox. Move this folder into your Applications folder.

Now you need to create a folder to MOUNT as your C: drive and hold your games. The most convenient location for this folder would be your home folder (which can be referenced as ~). In This example we will call our folder DOSGAMES. Inside this folder we can place all of the programs that we want to be available in our emulated DOS environment. Remember that while these files are buried deep in the file system with paths like ~/DOSGAMES/TESTDRV, inside DOSBox they appear as though they reside in the root of their mounted drive letter, so the above example in DOSBox would be located at C:TESTDRV (assuming that ~/DOSGAMES was mounted as C:).

Running DOSBox for the first time

Double click on the DOSBox icon in Finder to launch DOSBox for the first time. This will cause the DOSBox window to appear. By default no drives are mounted (except the DOSBox default Z:) From here you need to mount your DOSGAMES folder. Assuming you placed it inside your home folder you should be able to run this command to MOUNT the folder.

Now type this command to navigate to your newly mounted drive

Editing DOSBox preferences

After you first run DOSBox, go to the ~/Library/Preferences/ folder and open the newly created file DOSBox 0.74 Preferences. The exact folder name in the Finder may vary, depending on the language you use for OS X.

By editing this file, you can set the system settings and initialization values that define your emulated environment. You can also add MOUNT commands to the AUTOEXECsection at the bottom of the configuration files, so that you do not have to type them in every time you start DOSBox.

Running DOSBox with custom config

Treasure

You can create configuration file for individual games. It can hold specific configuration options and even commands for invoking game in the AUTOEXEC section. Then you can run DOSBox with your config by calling following command from terminal:
