    Apparently fixed already, or will be fixed soon. https://social.treehouse.systems/@chaos_princess/11672546441...

    It seems like this is a bug, apple went through the trouble to allow something like asahi to be possible in the first place. I doubt they're purposely trying to break it.

    Sadly both main ARM platforms (Apple silicon and Qualcomm) are a mine field for Linux

    It’s a beta… Apple is very pro Asahi

    Do you need to keep a MacOs installation when you install Asahi?

    macOS 27 Golden Cage /sOn the other hand I doubt that's intentional. Even as an avid Apple critic I want to mention that people I trust and are more involved with Asahi, always pointed out that Asahi received the occasional little help from Apple devs where possible (surely, not with official documentation, or confidential infos).So, I would wait until things had time to calm down and not get too invested with Apple bashing.

    I’m sorry but some of the comments are out of touch. Apple devices do not have any intent of supporting separate OSes . Asahi supports M1 to M2. I can see this as a PSA to not install a beta but I am confused who would install both Akashi and macOS 27 beta at the same time when you could run the beta in a VM for development ? Others have said that this has been a fix that will happen soon.

    I wish the EU would regulate this kind of stuff.A consumer shouldn't be restricted from installing their own OS on a device that they bought, be it a smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop, or server.A company the size of Apple should also be required to release proper documentation that enables the porting of operating systems to these kinds of devices.The reverse engineering work that the Asahi team did is remarkable but so much of it is ultimately busy work that didn't need to be done if we regulated the consumer electronics market appropriately.
