Hi guys,

I need to install parallel for chrome os since i failed at it in vmware.

BUT, it tells me i cannot install because i do not have the 64 bit kernel.

The macbook has a 2,16 core2due which has a 64bit architecture,
There are several ways to boot into 64 mode, i will list the ones i have tried;

- Holding 6 and 4 @ boot
- Terminal command; sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture x86_64
- 32 bit / 64 bit kernel selector (software)

It simply wont boot the 64 bit kernel and the previously named kernel selector software tells me that its not supported by apple.

I am baffled.

Please help me <3
