I am afraid this is one of these things you cannot do on a Mac, you can install parallels or VMware, make a quick windows install, root, and keep the virtual machine, you might need it in the future for future rootings and stuff like this.

well honestly i dont know cos i use to be a apple fan. but i've the international version of xperia Z

First, unlock your bootloader:

Second, use flashtool to change kernel/add root:

If you can understand the batch script used in the root kit then yes, it is pretty much a step-by-step of what to do.

UB means unlocked bootloader and LB means locked bootloader

If you want to install vanilla android you have to unlock your bootloader. I suggest you to use the search function and read all the threads about what that means.

Its like a mini Z and doesn't have much popularity

Too bad.. I thought It had excellent support due to the fact that it has same build number with Xperia Z.

Don't search. Browse.
Now you are in Xperia ZR General.
Go up one level and then down to Xperia ZR Development or Original Development sections.
Go through various posts. It is there in one of the top few posts.
I am on Tapatalk now so do not have the patience to do it for you.
