Hello I'm trying the trial version of Parallels Desktop on my m1 Mac mini. I trying different iso file's of CentOS 7/8 aarch64 image to install as my new vm. I able to load the iso after config the vm - I get into the boot menu when I need to choose install the CentOS and I click on it and nothing is happen and it's back to same menu. what I missing here?
CentOS relies on 64KB granule support, which isn't supported by the IOMMU of the Apple M1 processor. I'd recommend using Fedora or Ubuntu instead, with CentOS containers as needed.
(for that matter, not supported by the MMU is what matters here, should have said that instead of the IOMMU, which doesn't matter in this case)
