I am running VirtualBox 6.0.10 on an iMac (Mojave) and I prepared a macOS High Sierra VM from the ground up with VirtualBox. The VM runs fine, but I am not able to update the guest OS from 10.13.4 to 10.13.6.
This post contains the steps I extracted from various resources in order to get a fully working High Sierra install within VirtualBox 5. Step 1: Download The High Sierra Installer. To do this, you need to be on an existing macOS system. I was unable to find the download within the App Store itself, but following this link opened the App Store at the correct page. Install VirtualBox on Windows PC. In the “Required Files” part of the article, you ought to have.
The reason for that, as far as I understood, is that the macOS update is installed onto the recovery partition of the VM hard drive and the VM should boot from this partition to finish the update. Unfortunately, the UEFI boot settings of VirtualBox seem to overrun the macOS settings and the system always boots the regular macOS partition. So each time I start the update from macOS, the reboot gives me an unaltered system.While preparing the High Sierra VM, I had a hard time getting out of the UEFI shell and selecting the correct boot.efi in order to boot the system.
But now I want to get into

the UEFI shell, then to the boot options. I found hints to press F12 or fn-F12 'during boot' for getting into the shell, but I tried it several times to no avail. Also hitting 'AnyKey' during boot, as suggested elsewhere (very funny), did not help.At what time during boot exactly should I press what key?
