Then you open the Fusion virtual machine file like you would an. Actually delete it from disk don't just remove it from inventory. Then you just delete the original (APFS) virtual disk from within Fusion. Now set Fusion to boot off of the HFS+ virtual disk and boot from it. One formatted as APFS and one formatted as HFS+. However you do it, you will end up with a VMware Fusion VM with macOS Mojave bootable on two virtual drives.

If you prefer you could just install Mojave onto Virtual Drive 2 (HFS+). Once formatted you can use a backup program like SuperDuper! or CCC to clone the working installation to Virtual Drive 2. It needs to be HFS+ to work with VirtualBox. This is important as it's APFS by default. Once you have macOS Mojave working in VMware Fusion you create a second virtual drive and using Disk Utility on the just created VM, reformat virtual drive 2 as HFS+. There are a number of "Making a macOS VM in VMware Fusion" web pages out there so I'm not going to go into all of that, but there are some non-obvious settings you will need to find to make this work.
No worries there as this procedure will take a lot less time than that. Maybe it has been fixed in the last few months, I don't really know.ĭownload a (free) copy of VMware's virtualization software Fusion. I haven't investigated recently but last I looked VirtualBox doesn't support APFS or booting from APFS. It doesn't require spending money on commercial software just a bit of fiddling. This is gonna be an overview of the process which I completed a few months ago.
