Simo Posted yesterday at 07:51 PM Posted yesterday at 07:51 PM Hello, I successfully installed HexOS using UTM on macOS with an Apple M3 CPU (ARM). UTM, which is built on QEMU, allows you to emulate* a different architecture if you’re running something other than ARM. In this case, it was used to emulate x86_64, which is required for HexOS. Notes: • Disable UEFI: Ensure UEFI is disabled in the hypervisor template. • Use BIOS: During the HexOS installation process, do not enable UEFI; choose BIOS instead. • Add Pool Drives Later: Pool drives (IDE) were added after the initial setup. If this step is not followed, the deck may not be able to locate the local server. • App Installation: Apps were added via the TrueNAS interface because the HexOS installation was failing at 60%. • Hardware Settings: • Architecture: x86_64 • System: Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) (alias of pc-q35-9.1) (q35) • Emulated Display Card: virtio-vga-gl (GPU Supported) 1 Quote
