Hello I have been trying to create a virtual machine for ubuntu 20.04 specifically so i can use ROS. I have downloaded the ARM Based ISOs however get the message : The specified image cannot be used because your Mac is equipped with the Apple M series chip that doesn't support Intel-based operating systems. I have tried creating a blank without a source and using the files on the CD/DVD section and resetting however that doesnt work either. Has anyone managed to create a ubuntu 20.04 on the M1 Mac. Thanks in advance!
Hello @DanielP33, Thank you for reaching out to us. To install an ARM distribution of Linux, you must ensure that the image is an ARM-based image else the installation will likely fail due to incompatible architecture. We normally recommend using the Parallels Desktop main Installation Assistant menu, which provides a set of ready-to-go Linux virtual machines. For your convenience, we have listed the following steps to allow you to install the Ubuntu 22.04: 1. Open Parallels Desktop > Righ0 Click on Parallels Icon from the Dock > Select Control Center 2. Click + in the top right corner > Continue > scroll to the right under Free Systems > select Download Ubuntu Linux. 3. Click Download and proceed with the installation. You can refer to this article for more information: https://kb.parallels.com/128445 Thank you.
I am using ROS therefore need to version to be 20.04 is there anyway for this to be possible on parallels or should i look into other VMs
Hello, Kindly confirm if the linux image you are using is designed for ARM archictecture. If possible, please upload the iso file to the link provided below: https://support-fileshare.alludo.com/api/fileShare?id=ef6b9141-adf7-4632-9e2d-968247aa3aaf
same problem, I have parallels 20 and ai cannot install ubuntu 20.04 Pops up the message: "The specified image cannot be used because your Mac is equipped with the Apple M series chip that doesn't support Intel-based operating systems." It's strage because with previous version of Parallels I was able to use the sema ISO
