Support for new Linux distros? Rocky and Alma Linux

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 doesn't have any support for M1; too old of a kernel. You can try CentOS 9 Alpha to see if this have been alleviated, otherwise open an issue with Red Hat.

Fedora works perfectly fine though, I recommend using that.
 
Same issue here. Alma Linux is our standard for a project, therefore, it would be good to get them going.
It gets as far as selecting the install verification or go straight to the install. Selecting either jumps right back to the same install select screen.
 
Any update on being able to install Rocky Linux in Parallells? I was going to use the free version but then I paid for Paralles hoping that there would be some support but I guess not.
 
I installed Alma 8.6 on Parallels 17. Intel iMac. No problems. I selected "Other Linux" when installing.

This thread is for ARM Macs. Alma 8.6 installs fine on your Intel iMac because its an x86-64 device. All versions/variants of RHEL before RHEL 9 don't support ARM Macs because their kernels are compiled with 64k pagesize, whereas M1 requires 16k pagesize.
