Running on darwin/arm64 stuck after EFI boot loader

[andig]

Thank you for this great repo! I'm trying to setup the emulator for evcc-io/evcc#18209, but failing to run it. After having built the image with

${GOK} overwrite --full=$(IMAGE_FILE) --target_storage_bytes=1258299392

booting into it on darwin/arm64 gets stuck in the EFI loader:

EFI stub: Booting Linux Kernel...
EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable
EFI stub: Using DTB from configuration table
EFI stub: Exiting boot services...

Any hint why this might be the case would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hey @andig thanks for using this repo.
At this point I moved on from this repo as we worked on an improved version of this.

gokrazy now officially supports this! In fact gok now has gok vm with which reuses the logic on this repo but wraps this in go.

You can leverage to run arm64 and amd64 vms, also with native macos hardware acceleration: see for cli arguments gokrazy/tools@b8ffcd4

I suggest moving to the officially supported project. If issues like this arise also there, we can work on that together to fix them.

Let me know if this helps.

Wow, that's amazing- much appreciated!

Can't get it to run:

To interact with the device, gokrazy provides a web interface reachable at:

In addition, the following Linux consoles are set up:

after running as sudo, can't connect to :8080 on arm64 Mac M1. Should I open gokrazy issue?

Yes better to have a chat there. It works for me but I had to set GOOS=linux in front of gok. We can chat about potential issues there

Oh yeah... forgot all my Go-foo in light of the gokrazy magic ;). Did that now but still can't boot the image. Issue opened.
