Something changed and now I can no longer run the VM on apple silicon. I was going through your repo (thank you!) to learn what you.

Interestingly; nix run nixpkgs#darwin.linux-builder works fine.

Yeah, I should mark this repository deprecated or archived. nixpkgs#darwin.linux-builder is the final home of this work

Is there something I am missing in understanding why it wouldn't work?

I'm trying to break down what you are doing from first principles.

I am trying to understand the delta between what needs to work from:

{system ? builtins.currentSystem, pkgs ? import (fetchTarball "https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/nixos-24.05.tar.gz") { inherit system; }}:
let
    nixos = pkgs.nixos ({config, lib, ...}: {
    });
in
nixos.vm

Does it rely on it needing to be in the NixOS cache ?

Thanks for your contributions.

yeah, the important bit is that it has to be cached. the reason that this was upstreamed into Nixpkgs was so that it could be built, signed, and cached by trusted infrastructure
