i686 installer only prints help page #229

Closed bcskillings closed 3 years ago

bcskillings commented 3 years ago

I’m attempting to install Bedrock using the iSH app on my iPhone 12 Pro. While the phone is armv8, the iSH architecture (according to neofetch) runs as i686.

I downloaded the installer and went to run it with --hyjack, but doing so resulted in it printing the help page. I tried to specify the original stratum (alpine) but it resulted the same way. To test, I downloaded the x86_64 installer and it began to run but would not recognize that fuse was installed.

From project's gh-page-faq:

Q: Why does iSH emulate at all? Can't it use a JIT compiler, or virtualization?
A: iOS devices lack support for hardware virtualization

So, bedrock hijacking inside iSH(x86 emulation program) and in near future(take the pulse of new features of iPhone processors)on iPhones is impossible.
