Suddenly out of nowhere, M-series Macs became the ideal ARM target for Haiku.

If we’re talking about parallel universes, imagine BeInc acquiring Apple

Be Inc. is long gone,but imagine Haiku Inc. acquiring Apple and making it produce Haiku computers.
I mean,if GameStop can buy eBay without having the money,why shouldn’t Haiku buy Apple? 
Just kidding,of course

This Is helpfull for other Macbook a top wow 
Will you push this part of code independently? nice to boot without refind on MacBook if possible. Definetly good job anyway!
This isn’t applicable to Intel Macs, so you’re not going to be able to avoid rEFInd on those machines

So BeOS identity will be destroyed and made it look like MacOS like it was done with NeXTSTEP. Haiku may not appear at all.
I do not think that this alternative future is better than current one.

Bloody amazing. I got the nightly image to boot using the qemu command line above and surprisingly it booted fine the first time, well 2nd as I forgot to change to drive name.
seems fast and I will be playing with this for a bit on my Macbook M1 Pro.
For booting on Metal how did you setup your drive? I thought of looking into how they got Linux on the M series.
Thanks all for the hard work getting this working.
You can run the Asahi Linux installer to setup your drive for running non-macOS operating systems. The installer has an option to either install Linux or to just install a bootloader so you can boot UEFI images (which is what I used).
Sounds like a plan. I will plan to do that shortly. Going to set up a few other VM’s to build an images and experiment. Thanks
