Multipass setup instructions do not work on Mac with M1 silicon #101

I hit some problems with the steps to setup Multipass on Mac:

  1. The command multipass mount $PWD cli-tools:/automation failed. This was because the VM did not have access to the internet, and could not install an OS repository with snap. On Mac, I needed to disable the firewall setting 'Stealth Mode' to get this to work (System Preferences->Firewall Tab->Firewall Options)

  2. The command multipass launch --name cli-tools --cloud-init ./cli-tools.yaml installed the incorrect AMD binaries which will not run with an M1 chip. This is because the command uname -m inside the VM returns aarch64, not 'arm64' as expected by the cli-tools.yaml.

I opened the same issue on Software Everywhere repo instead.
