I am on Manjaro OS, but it should not matter what OS you are on. The end result of this article is to run macOS in Virtualbox on any Linux OS.
I was working on a web project and needed to share the VirtualBox appliance(OVA file) with others to test it out(hosting and Internet is not an option, an offline solution).
