Hopefully having these options together in one blog post is somewhat helpful in choosing between them too! ![]() These are of course noted wherever I’ve used them, with a few tweaks of my own I’ve made on top of these excellent guides. I tried out three four options for Mac - landing on one as my preference as it covered both the need to run on the newer Apple Silicon and allow mounting of volumes on the host OS, which is something I do fairly frequently (mostly to shorten the feedback loop when testing changes that run on an image intended to run in CI).ĭisclaimer: Most of the steps detailed below were found through following other fantastic blog posts I found out there □.
