macOS 27 Beta Breaks The Ability To Boot Asahi Linuxhttps://www.phoronix.com/news/macOS-27-Beta-Breaks-Asahi
>>109022530I don't careThe only asahi I know is that Japanese beer
>>109022530I still don't understand Asahi Linux users. What kind of retardation is it to buy a Mac and not run macOS? That's fucking crazy, why not buy literally any other laptop?
>>109022804why wouldn’t I want a macbook as a linux fag? they’re great hardware, I just don’t like macosespecially now that the market is fucked and macbooks aren’t even any more expensive than some dogshit hp or dell
>>109022850Well it's because while Apple isn't exactly banning you from running Linux on MacBooks, they are also not exactly making drivers for Linux or helping devs to make Linux run on MacBooks in a significant way, so Asahi Linux always is behind on the Mac chips, and will probably always feel beta quality
>>109022899>so Asahi Linux always is behind on the Mac chips, and will probably always feel beta qualitySure but so what? I don’t need tb5 speeds and touch id not working is whatever. Only issue that’s actually annoying is usb-c DP, but I have a pro with hdmi port so it’s nbd
>>109022530BASED
>>109023059That's not even true because UEFI + ACPI is required on Windows on ARM
>>109023059This bait is basically a dementia test. Anyone falling for it should probs apply for government assistance.
>>109023059why would i use anything other than macos though
ETA for Asahi working on M5 chips?
Coincidentally Apple released this at the same time: https://github.com/apple/container>container is a tool that you can use to create and run Linux containers as lightweight virtual machines on your Mac. It's written in Swift, and optimized for Apple silicon.>The tool consumes and produces OCI-compatible container images, so you can pull and run images from any standard container registry. You can push images that you build to those registries as well, and run the images in any other OCI-compatible application.>container uses the Containerization Swift package for low-level container, image, and process management.
>>109026908It’s shit tho. Can’t release virtio-grown ram, can’t pass through usb, inefficient data transfer (as all mac vms). I don’t really understand that the point of it is, you dont even get darwin namespaces or anything interesting like that. It’s pretty much OrbStack but worse.
>>109026908why does Apple not have their own git service instead of using the one from their arch nemesis?
<<<<<<<<<< YOU ARE HERE

>>109022804IMO the point of asahi is research on the apple hw, it's an end on itself that can be referenced in other cases of reverse engineering and not strictly about having linux running on mackbooks.
>>109022530It also allegedly dropped x86 support, so this is your last chance to build maxed out MacPro.Protip: use any hexa to tetradeca core CPU of e5 Xeon v4 series and polaris AMD graphics card. Any motherboard would do, but check net and audio hardware in advance, make sure it will work out of the box.If you're an applefag, may also get a wifi/bt pice card for air drop to funtion correctly.You can build it for like $250-300. And it will actually be a computer with respectable capabilities, not a Neo toy.Even if you think you don't need one right now, consider it as a backup device if your daily driver breaks. Set it up now, while that community still kinda exist and software of all kinds is available. Thank me later (in a decade or so, when owning compute would require a loicense and all that).
>>109022530Asahi say it's a bug and will be fixed in the full release
>>109030263We had something similar with yellowdog linux back in the day.I did try it, but it wasn’t that good so went back to os/x but it did work.os/x is a true unix for the most part, don’t see the need for linux really from an end-user perspective.
