Ditto title, is there any ETA to support an aarch64-darwin host? Thanks in advance.

MatthewCroughan commented 9 months ago

Not going to happen any time soon, unless you can point me to a hypervisor that can run XNU kernel for aarch64, with full support.

The current state of the art is BlackBerry's QEMU fork

This also allows you to run iOS.

My current understanding is that graphics work for iOS, but not for macOS-arm64, and I'm not sure if you can even get past the installer for macOS-arm64.

Does https://github.com/cirruslabs/tart provide a method to do this?

MatthewCroughan commented 8 months ago

@chrislf Sadly not

macOS and Linux VMs on Apple Silicon

This means that you can run a macOs VM on Apple Silicon, not on Linux.

@MatthewCroughan ah, that is unfortunate. Thanks for the response!
