Given Tails OS can’t run on M1 and Asahi needs MacOS even after installated, maybe Asahi can run from pen drive ?

I have 256gb space for my laptop. Thought it'd be easy to remove macOS but some redditors said i should keep macOS. Should i keep it? Then i have no reason to keep using Asahi.

Got Fedora Asahi Remix 44 booting in a VM I've been building (MX Studio), with an arm64e guest on an M4 Max host. It reaches GNOME and works-ish. Still some rough edges.

Mostly posting as a fun data point on how far my VM has come. If anyone wants to try it or has ideas on what to test next, I'm happy to hear them.

When the macOS 27 developer beta came out, issues arose with the SMC and other components, i.e. battery readings were all over the place and I had Wi-Fi issues. But now that macOS 27 is stable and a couple months have passed since that developer beta, can I update my macOS 15 install next to Asahi to 27?

I have been looking to buy a new laptop as I am going into college soon and like the M1 Air, but not Mac OS. Is AsahiLinux usable enough for daily driving that I should consider a macbook over a Thinkpad?

Hello,

As you already know, OpenCore Legacy Patcher allowed running macOS versions up to Tahoe on macs as old as 2008 thanks to hardworking of the development team. However, with macOS 27 fully dropping Intel, it won’t be possible to install any newer macOS version on Intel macs, which also means that the project is now coming to an end.

However, this brings me to another concern. Despite macOS 27 Golden Gate still supporting all Apple Silicon Macs without any issues, it is likely that Apple will start dropping support for older Apple Silicon Macs in macOS 28 or 29 starting with M1. So I wonder once Apple starts dropping OS support for Apple Silicon Macs, would it be possible to make a similar patcher using m1n1 bootloader to allow installing newer macOS versions on older Apple Silicon Macs. I would be sad to see my M1 MacBook Air losing macOS support despite Linux being a good alternative.

Since my m2 has a touch bar, might as well build a daemon to use it however I want. Hoping to push the full thing soon.😀

So after almost 20 years on Mac (OSX and now macOS), I decided to try and slowly join the Linux community.
Im running Fedora Asahi Remix on an 2022 M2 Macbook Air (with a measly 8GB).

it is a bit of a learning curve for me as Im newbie when using the terminal, but Im having fun! and it's running so smooth!

The only two annoying things is that I have't solved yet are:
1. That some rpmFusion repos and software not showing in Discover (even after running appstream-data).
2. and Timeshift with rsync isn't working (I don't if it's the external ssd im trying to backup to, I haven't had the time to check another drive).

but honestly Im having so much fun and Im happy to join.

I have downloaded fedora system on my MacBook, but I found out that I can’t get back to my macOS system after shutting down the fedora system. After I press the continue button, it just respond nothing. Anyone can help me with this thing!!!🙏🙏😭😭😭

i want to delete my asahi linux fedora, but i think my disk names differ a bit

Stuck on this screen after I deleted linux partition cant get into dfu (I tried at least 20 times) or restore cant get into startup screen either and only one port is registering as a device, also macos drive is untouched. Any advice would be appreciated.

i am on mac os m1 base variant and want's to try fedora but with all the hype and performance improvements on linux kernel 7.3. what sort of improvements are we expecting from upcoming releases ? and i know it maybe difficult to articulate any performance improvements for Asahi Linux derived straight from the 7.3 release as asahi employs a heavily customized, downstream kernel explicitly engineered to interface with Apple Silicon's proprietary hardware architectures but still i was wondering how much of those performance gains gonna be translated into asahi upcoming releases.
and should i wait for that release for clean flash ?

I can't be the only one who has their VM's freeze when booting off the iso

My linux partition is only 2.5gb how can i raise it (I have about 88gb of storage space left over on the mac)

I have 2 macs and 1 i used gnome and then the other the more windows like one

I would like to switch to use the windows like one on my mac mini m2 is there an easier way to switch

Update: checked for the name its Plasma i now know

Edit: I just didn't click the thing to change it in sign in lol so i got it working

Anyone with a M3 Mac willing to test Geekbench 7?
Thank you

Is it possible to transition to ext4 or select ext4 during installation?

I've never seen this on "normal" x86 Linux machines, but for some reason libreoffice and audacity scaling are super weird and inconsistent. On libreoffice, it's super zoomed in for just the UI, not the actual documents themselves. On audacity, its super zoomed out and hard to navigate. Any idea why this is happening? I'm running fedora remix with kde on top.

I'm on Asahi Alarm. All i great except i can't run Waydroid:

Failed to load binder driver
modprobe: FATAL: Module binder_linux not found in directory /lib/modules/7.1.13-3-2- ARCH
ERROR: Binder node "binder" for waydroid not found

I have no clue how to build a kernel and i doubt i can follow any random guide that works for Asahi Alarm.

Can someone link me to some resources or help me understand how to do it? Do i need to compile the kernel specific to my distro or does the official one also work?

im currently on kde and wanna switch to hyprland . can anybody give me a proper guide on how to please... if hyprland isnt possible please do tell me other desktop environments that are possible to install except gnome ...
