Hopefully Parallels support will read this thread and update the kexts and issue a product update.Ĭlick to expand.Took me some digging through system.log and doing some research on the net, but I finally figured this out.The menu lists all standard and distributed port groups that are available for virtual machine use on the host. In order to work around this, I had to boot into recovery mode (CMD + R), open terminal, and then disable CSRUTIL by running csrutil disable and then rebooting. I found this by trying to manually load the kexts for Parallels and the system.log telling me they were untrusted.ĭec 16 19:20:06 XXXX sudo: ier : TTY=ttys000 PWD=/Applications/Parallels Desktop.app/Contents/Library/Extensions/10.9 USER=root COMMAND=/sbin/kextload prl_vnic.kextĭec 16 19:20:06 XXXX : Untrusted kexts are not allowedĭec 16 19:20:06 XXXX : ERROR: invalid signature for, will not load Because of the new security with 10.11, any kext not signed for the current version will not be allowed to load.
