#VMWARE FOR MAC LINUX INSTALL#
To install and run Mac OS X operating system in a VMware virtual machine on Windows/Linux/Mac OS X, you have to setup an unlock patch for your VMware product (it can be VMware Workstation, VMware Workstation Player, VMware Fusion or VMware ESXi/vSphere Hypervisor) first, so as to remove this restriction. For now, the graphics will be CPU-based as support for GPU-equipped VMs is still under development.By default, VMware product does not support creating a Mac OS X virtual machine directly, there is no such an option at all.

VMware Fusion beta for M1 Macs also lacks support for macOS Monterey due to API incompatibilities, and it is unclear if this will be added with a future update.
#VMWARE FOR MAC LINUX DRIVERS#
Although you can manually install Windows 10 ARM using VMware Fusion, there will be no official drivers compatible with M1 Macs. This is because Microsoft does not sell official licenses of Windows 10 ARM. Probably the most notable limitation is that VMware Fusion will not provide support for running Windows virtual machines on Apple Silicon Macs. However, unlike VMware Fusion for Intel Macs, the Apple Silicon version has some limitations that users need to be aware of. VMware Fusion and Workstation Manager Michael Roy (via The Register) shared on Twitter the link to an online form for those interested in trying VMWare Fusion beta for Macs M1.Īccording to Roy, a public beta release will be available in about two weeks, which could mean that the official release might come by the end of this year. Now the company is taking its next step in bringing VMWare Fusion to M1 Macs with the first beta release compatible with Apple Silicon.įor now, VMware Fusion for Macs M1 will be available as a closed beta, which means that not everyone can download it. VMware Fusion is one of the most popular hypervisor softwares available for macOS, which allows users to run virtual machines with not only Apple’s operating system, but also Windows and Linux.
