Can you use to launch an Intel VM on Apple Silicone and visa versa? I’m interested in doing this so I can compile C++ applications for different architectures on MacOS. Do you know of any other “easy” methods?
I know the Mac hardware is pretty trick, but man, I do most of my dev on Linux and have a Framework Laptop (AMD) running Ubuntu; it's just really nice for dev stuff to work the same way it does on our production environment... Also, the frequency and size and time to install MacOS updates - like these computers are blazingly fast from the cpus to the SSDs - after an update has downloaded, what could it possibly be do…
Always wondered the same, re: updates. To be fair, macOS I believe is downloading an entire OS image each time. macOS is immutable root, like Fedora Silverblue, so OS updates download the entire OS image each time. On a package-based system you're doing a diff update, essentially. Then again, even Fedora Silverblue image updates don't take nearly as long as macOS. At least both are better than Windows, god knows what…
Assuming they're using some fast parallel compression algo as well when unpacking it...
Would you mind educating me about use cases for having one or even multiple MacOS VMs on an apple silicon machine please?
I have an M4 Mac Mini running the following in a VM: - OpenWRT (previously OPNSense & once Mikrotik RouterOS) using 2x 2.5Gbps Ethernet NICs via USB-C - OpenMediaVault (Exposing a 4-bay DAS via USB-C, 2x3TB Drives in Btrfs RAID-1) - HassOS (Home Assistant OS) On the host, I'm running OLlama and a reverse proxy through Docker. The whole thing uses 7 watts of power at any given time - I've seen max peaks of 12w when ru…
I understand for specific MacOS or iOS development wanting template envs one would want to easily and repeatedly spawn up / destroy.
How does this compare to Lima[1] and Tart[2], which are similar? Also, would it be possible to run BSDs with this? [1] https://lima-vm.io [2] https://tart.run
Yes, lume relies on Apple's Virtualization framework and can run BSD on a Mac with Apple silicon: https://wiki.freebsd.org/AppleSilicon I'll definitely document the option in the README, thanks! On Lima: - Lima focuses on Linux VMs and doesn't support managing macOS VMs. - It is more of a container-oriented way of spinning up Linux VMs. We're still debating whether to go in that direction with lume, but the good news…

Out of curiosity, why not containers for OMV and Haas? QoS? And I’m dying to know what you are using openwrt for. I’m looking at setting up a Mini as well, and have been using Colima/LIMA to run containers on Rosetta/Mac vz locally and it seems to work well enough.
