Why can't they just emulate arm64 linux instead ? It must be easier as both are of same arch.
Yes on arm. Sorry I meant the cpu (x86_64) not a cpu. :-D
Nope, they aren't providing emulation of arm64 on x86_64.
Would be great if it could run x86 on arm but I guess if it was that easy it would already be done
It's a real shame that it can't be made to work on arm systems
i am looking for something like this but for arm64 on macos.
Shouldn't they just run Linux on arm? Seeing as Linux already supports it?
Ask the maintainers to build arm images. Realistically they should be, unless the project uses lots of x86 assembly.
What is it about your software that it can't run on ARM?
It works just fine and is natively ARM, since a year or so.
