Oh wow, looks great. Can't wait to try it out! Thanks for such a thorough and friendly tutorial!
You are so welcome!
Now installed Fedora KDE Plasma on MBA M1, worked perfect! I could not connect to 5 GHz wifi, but that's maybe not yet implemented in Asahi. Thank you so much for the excellent video.
5GHZ band is working fine for me.
Very helpful and complete instructions for me, thanks!
Thank you very much ))
Worked perfectly thank you.
The hour was stressful, brain flooded with concerns, it worked luckily enough.
thanks man. I could install it :)
I was hating the opening,,, but then at the end I loved that you Uninstalled it step by step. -subbed
thank you so much.
Hi thanks for the tutorial ! Can i install it if i already have the arch version ? Will it automatically delete the arch version when i install the fedora ?
Thank you very much for this tutorial. I'd like to know: how do you access files on your macOS partition while being booted into Fedora? Or do you use a third partition or an external drive to share files?
I believe it's not possible due to the fact that Asahi Linux is installed as a seperate os image / container and your original macos installation by default is encrypted and also inside it's own container. Think of it as if in one box you have macos and your data, and in 2nd box you have asahi linux and it's data.
I prefer using NAS with both OSes.
That black menu bar is really annoying on Macs, I have the same issue with running stock Ubuntu on an LED Cinema display : the black menu bar blends into the deep black screen frame making the top edge look taller. It doesn't look good. On my stock Ubuntu I changed the menu bar to dark gray to fix that.
can i dual boot using USB or External SSD instead inbuilt APPLE SSD ? will github project asahi-fedora-usb work for this ?
I just have the same question.
A great Video 👏
Thank you so much
Instead of its own distribution what I want to see is something that lets me seamlessly run any distribution in a non invasive fashion without it being a virtual machine. I also need to know if everything gets reverted if I choose to uninstall. Ok good you covered that well in this video.
Uninstalling is totally safe as well.
this is all built on Mac's built in very good support for alternative OS installs (though you can never remove macos without the device doing a full out of the box experience).
The goal is to make all linux distros M1 safe, but this is the first major one. Asahi is being developed as the lowest level in a manner that SHOULD make it mostly droppable into any distro, or even linux core.
Great tutorial. I've been holding off installing Asahi but this release gives me more confidence to bite the bullet. Out of interest, how hard is it to wipe the linux distro from a mac if I wanted to put it back the way it was? Is it as simple as deleting the partitions or is there more to it than that?
I made the installation hassle free which is easily understandable to everyone. I did show the installation process and deleting of Asahi linux.
Can i this os install on the old imac 27 inch 2011.
Hello, is this normal that i can't use GCC even if it's downloaded ?
Very excited for the arm version of fedora run in snapdragon x elite.
SNAP DRAGON ?
It won't be that good, don't get your hopes up
@@iritesh 😥 . I was hoping it perform like m2 🥲
I'm waiting for the USB-C Display so I can connect the laptop to an external monitor with MiniDisplayPort like the LED Cinema. Hopefully they get it working.
ive got problem when in second step of installation, my system is not booting into correct recoveryOS, can anyone help
Did u do exactly what I have shown ? I think you have missed the second step..
Do one thing. Force turn off your Mac, then after few seconds. Hold the power button until it says *loading start up options* then let the power key go. Then inside the boot menu choose Fedora and follow the video.
I tried it when it was Arch-based. Extremely snappy. The one thing I didn't like it was that when the laptop was in idle the battery still drained very quickly. When in active use battery life seemed okay, got maybe over 8 hours of web browsing.
oh, well this answers the question I just asked on your video
Arch based Asahi Linux is baby. Try Fedora Asahi Remix and thank me later. One word in terms of performance, battery Asahi Fedora Remix is EXCELLENT LINUX OS.
First of all, thanks for this amazing video . Everything is explained very clearly.
BTW I'm about to try this.......
Is case of any error or something , is there a possibility of damaging my laptop?
Where should I be more careful?
It wont damage your laptop at any cost mostly. If in case the installation gets failed it will reboot back to macOS automatically.
If not, you can force turn off Mac, then turn on and keep holding the power button until it says a message: "loading startup options" then you will enter into boot menu.
Choose Macintosh HD to boot into macOS.
Then inside macOS, open spotlight and search for "startup disk" and select Macintosh HD..
It's nice video. I installed successfully on my MacPro M1. Thank you so much. Btw I have a question. How can I install Discord in my laptop? I tried to install via RPM Fusion and Flathub. Both are not worked. Thank you again!
I have 83.27GB of Overhead, what does that mean?
Thank you for an awesome tutorial!
Wow, what a great job did Asahi team made already. Seeing how it is possible to run Linux side by side, without compromising security - I will be definitely installing it on my system. Will just wait however for Asahi based on Fedora 40 with KDE 6 and maybe will try new Gnome as well.❤
One thing - does anyone know if Asahi Linux can run in Parallels Desktop and if there are any benefits of using it as a virtual machine compared to any vm of ARM Linux distro? Probably it makes no sense, but was just thinking that as a VM Asahi Linux could run better than other ARM Linux distros, no?
Asahi cannot be run inside a VM. It is meant to experience bare metal and it's so good. Running bare metal is like direct access to Hardware. The fact is that it's designed to be a perfect alternative OS to macOS.
@@kskroyaltech Thank you for the reply. Now have no doubts about this project.
Amazing how much did the team achieve. Something is telling me that we will see Steam / CS:2 running in Asahi this year.👍
I followed the instructions, and everything went fine my purpose was done and i uninstalled it. but after that somehow frequently chrome becomes unresponsive suddenly and had to force quit it and open it again, this had never happened before.
can you give any solution for this? it would be of great help. amazing video btw.
I'm pretty sure typing "min" (2:55) won't give you the minimum size for Asahi. I believe that it gives you the minimum size for MacOS, which would result in giving you the maximum size for Asahi.
Correct
YES I have realised that later. It gives minimum space for macOS not for Asahi
Suppose if your Mac is having free space More than 100GB, by typing "*min*" it will allocate 180GB for Asahi. But it works better when Mac is having less than 100GB.
Anyway, Better to use percent thing.
how can i have the same keyboard in asahi remix i wanna change the control c to command c like mac os how can i change this i have macbook air m1 azerty thanks
HAHA I faced the same problem . You can change the key bindings. Go to settings choose Keyboard shortcuts
@@kskroyaltech I don't found the shortcut for copy and paste et new tab and close tab for change with command t and command w
YEP that's there. COMMAND C and COMMAND V could not be programmed . Dont know why
What does that mean when you set your system to permissive mode? Is it Fedora, MacOS, both? Not a good thing for security?
No need to worry about security integrity. Fedora have reverse engineered right to boot Linux kernel, that requires modifying the Boot Policies.
@@kskroyaltech Well, they clearly mentioned that we shouldn’t use this tool on a production machine.
Great video. I wanted to watch the actual install process before doing it for real and your video was perfect for that. This has brought up a few questions I was hoping you could answer or may have some insight or an opinion on:
1) The System Integrity Protection (SIP) was set to permissive for this install, reducing overall security. My macOS install is using FileVault, would it still remain secure? I assume so, but would be easier for an attacker to run some additional tools to hack/crack it.
2) Can the System Integrity Protection (SIP) be set back to full security after the installation of Asahi Fedora and everything still function as normal in both macOS and Asahi Fedora? Maybe Asahi Fedora would break after that and no longer boot or be available to boot until put back into permissive mode?
3) Did you or are you going to or need to set the System Integrity Protection (SIP) back to full security once Asahi Fedora was removed?
4) Is the Asahi Fedora install encrypted or is the option to encrypt it there? Can it do this without a passphrase at boot?
Did you test it's battery life on Asahi Fedora ?, like how long it managed to get ?
It's almost close to macOS. I am getting currently around 5 + hours based on my usage that involves mild coding, watching videos in 4K, music, browsing and more.
Thank you for including how to delete it
Install has failed in my mbp 14.
mac os version is 14.2.1
message says 'The final installation step cannot be completed from a different recovery os.'
I don't know what to do.
MBP 14 is it M1 or M2 ?
@@kskroyaltech Sorry, I tried it several times and got it entered. It's m1 pro. Thank you for reply.
NOTE: ANYTHING AFTER 10:15 IS THE (UNINSTALING) TUTORIAL. DO NOT FOLLOW IF YOU ARE NOT TRYING TO DELETE LINUX FEDORA. (I deleted mine twice and learned it the hard way). Thanks for the tutorial :)
I want ask you, is it possible install asahi linux on icloud locked macbook, because I bet in ebay and in 2 days maybe win locked macbook pro and I have to find way how I will use vendor locked HW on linux
thank you for your help
I dont think so it's possible with iCLOUD locked Mac.
I'm very excited for this. DO you know if 3rd party developer apps are optimized for linux on arm?
That was one big drawback for me. Asahi Linux worked fine on my mac, however a lot of apps that work on x86 are not working on ARM64. I was trying to use brave browser, did not work. Spotify, does not work. Hopefully in a near future everything will be working.
Awesome, thank you for the clarification@@Eric-bn3dd
It's called Linux ARM, and lacks app support. Use Flatpak to install any compatible app that supports ARM64. They are some source applications you can install them by manually compiling the source code.
nice video :) could you please share the wallpaper? beautiful desert and sky btw !
This is the wallpapers that apple provides in macOS Sonoma. They are system screensavers
Too bad dual monitor support on M1 MAC Mini is not supported. If it were this could become my primary operating system. Maybe they will get it working Asahi clearly has some very smart people working on this project. If they could fix the dual monitor (Thunderbolt) support and make it be able to natively mount (read and write) to my external APFS drive, I would be willing to pay for this OS
how is the trackpad scrolling? is it smooth?
Not as smooth as MacOS, lately I noticed that issue. But increasing the Trackpad acceleration feels fast but not smooth.
Good tutorial, thnx. But i'm waiting Fedora Asahi Remix 40.
WHY to wait. Try this ..
@@kskroyaltech there is no critical bugs? Working fine declared functionality?
I don't think you need to decide between GNOME and KDE depending on your device. It's just personal preference
Yes it's personal choice. But I suggest for MacBooks choose GNOME and for iMac use KDE plasma.
If you have a warranty on a Apple silicon mac, or even a mac mini, would the warranty go away or stay?
This thing doesn't remove any warranty. You are free to do anything .
@@kskroyaltech Thanks for helping me!
3:34 Why gnome for macbook and kde for imac?
Cause GNOME has next level touchpad gestures than KDE .. So all MacBooks withs track pads improve the UI experience just like macOS.
@@kskroyaltech why not GNOME for imac? GNOME is goated imo
Is already possible to use Tails in Mac M1?
I dont think so. But there Whonix may work and you have to install ubuntu .
Kali Asahi would be the best distro ever
Hope so it comes out sooner.
Can the installation be done in an external ssd?
NAH buddy at present only internal SSD ..
@@kskroyaltech Thanks for the prompt reply. I was going to order an external ssd if you didn’t reply.
When it asks for username and I put m1mac…it doesn’t work..😢😢
Open terminal on your Mac and find your username and the shell prompt looks like the below
USERNAME@COMPUTERNAME..
On the username part you will see yours in lower case .
Im stuck on min, how do I revert?
If it fails to install, force turn off the Mac.. Hold the Power button, keep holding until you see *loading startup options* and leave the power button. Then choose Macintosh and press return to boot into macOS.. And follow the end part of the video, to uninstall Fedora Asahi.
Don't worry...
@@kskroyaltech I did that and it's still stuck on min...
@@sqiuddyplays you fixed it?
Will it voids warrenty?
No, as this do not touch your original macos install... and besides technically Apple allows 3rd party oses on macs.
and if you break anything it's super easy to fresh install macos.
NEVER.. It won't void any warranty> you are free to use.
@@kskroyaltech that's simply not true. there absolutely is a possibility that it could void your warranty... as it uses custom firmware/drivers that potentially could damage hardware. there was an issue early on that could blow your speakers for example....
can i install it on ssd external ?
Not possible.
how much storage asahi linux recomended needs ?
can we get arch on m1/m2 macs yet?
You can install it on UTM using prebuilt image.
@@kskroyaltech how does hyprland run on it though? Is it laggy or is fine?
I have installed Hyprland on top of Fedora Asahi Remix and it runs next level.
good to hear i have a really riced out arch linux setup on my intel based cpu but i would love to be able to use it on my mac isntead.@@kskroyaltech
Check out the New video on that: ua-cam.com/video/Nfm3oyJx_Hk/v-deo.html
Will Astrill VPN work on this?
Sorry. I didn't try it
why dont usbC work?
Ports Work. But the problem is you cannot use it for external displays.
i am currently on mac os 12.7.1 can i install it?
Track pad won’t work
Which Mac is it ?
@@kskroyaltech m1 air 2020
Can we install in a VM instead of dual boot? Does it support KVM for near-bare-metal speeds in the VM?
YEs you can install It on VM through QEMU/KVM. here is the video: ua-cam.com/video/78yzVD2Yf1Y/v-deo.html
@@kskroyaltech Thanks. That guide is for Fedora, how will vanilla Fedora be different from Asahi Remix?
@@svenbjorn9700 No, Asahi Remix cannot be installed on a VM, because no VM emulates Apple Silicon hardware.
Bro sound is not working
Which Mac Model you are using ?
Does it runs on M3 pro or M3 Max? I'm not familiar with Apple Silicon, in x86 world, a AMD64 linux runs on every Intel/AMD machine, wonder why Asahi said it support M1 M2 specifically.
M3 Chips are New. I guess the support will be extended soon. As of know only M1 or M2 Macs are compatible with Asahi Linux. Til then I encourage to install ubuntu or Kali or any ARM64 Linux ISO on VM using VMWare fusion on M3 Chip. Here is the reference video about Kali Linux ua-cam.com/video/LJo9EUwXiHo/v-deo.html and it works for any apple silicon device:
is it possible to run x86 apps in Asahi ? (either the fedora or the Arch edition)
I tried Rosetta 2 for Linux but doesn't work properly.
man i need to sell this shit
I mean its neat that it can be done. In a few years when M1 and M2 deprecated by apple this will mean something. But right now it would be stupid to blow away an install of MacOS for any Linux distro.
I prefer Linux compare to macOS, for me this is great.
If you are macOS user and at the same time linux lover then you would understand the scope of Asahi Linux and its support towards apple silicon Macs.
@@kskroyaltech I am indeed both and have been for many years (MacOS since 2008 and Linux since 2005) and as I said the project is interesting. But I wouldn't dare cripple a new Mac with Linux. I have two older Macs running Linux right now but If I could install the latest MacOS on them without a patcher you better believe I would. It's simply leaps and bounds better.
Asahi Linux will come in handy in about 5-7 years when the M1 and M2 Macs no longer are supported by MacOS.
@@PZXhGPEVPZ If you access the internet you don't have "privacy" as for proprietary software I agree but to some people getting their work done is more important than an ideology. The more practical minded.
This doesn't "blow away" the MacOS. They coexist on the same hardware.
From one Indian to another, Gnome is procounced as "Nome". FFS.
YES NOME is the real pronunciation. Sorry my bad. Dont know why I like the Pronouncing it GNOME.
@@kskroyaltech Although the English word "gnome" is pronounced like "nome", the desktop environment GNOME is often pronounced "guh-nome" because of its origins in the GNU (guh-nu) project. Either pronunciation for the desktop environment is fine.
For GNOME the desktop environment the G isn't silent
