Apple has updated the WWDC22 developer page with the image below to show you how to quickly create a virtual machine on your Mac using the Virtualization framework. Create and isolate a virtual Mac. Learn how to quickly test application changes in your environment, install and run a full Linux distribution on Apple silicon, and run x86-64 Linux binaries using Rosetta 2. I will also introduce the method. ' We have announced that the above will be available on June 7th.



In addition, a document entitled 'Running Intel Binaries on Linux VMs Using Rosetta' was discovered, which included 'Apple's Virtualization Framework for ARM Linux Virtuals on Mac OS 13 and later on Macs with Apple Silicon Chips.' Since there is a statement that 'Rosetta will be supported on the machine (VM)', it is expected that the range of use will expand in the next version of the OS for Mac ' macOS Ventura ' announced on the first day of WWDC22. ..

In response to these announcements, the social site HackerNews said, 'When combined with the 3D acceleration done by QEMU , it may be an attractive solution for running the x86 Linux version of Steam on macOS.' Comments such as ' Is it possible to enable faster Docker with images?' 'On Mac, the entire Linux kernel must be run through a virtualized system, so it will be heavier than Linux Docker.' We have received many expected comments.
