base on A bootloader and experimentation playground for Apple Silicon # m1n1: an experimentation playground for Apple Silicon (And to some extent a Linux bootloader) ## Building You need an `aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` cross-compiler toolchain (or a native one, if running on ARM64). ```shell $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/AsahiLinux/m1n1.git $ cd m1n1 $ make ``` The output will be in build/m1n1.macho. To build on a native arm64 machine, use `make ARCH=`. To build verbosely, use `make V=1`. Building on ARM64 macOS is supported with clang and LLVM; you need to use Homebrew to install the required dependencies: ```shell $ brew install llvm ``` After that, just type `make`. ### Building using the container setup If you have a container runtime installed, like Podman or Docker, you can make use of the compose setup, which contains all build dependencies. ```shell $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/AsahiLinux/m1n1.git $ cd m1n1 $ podman-compose run m1n1 make $ # or $ docker-compose run m1n1 make ``` ## Usage Our [wiki](https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/m1n1%3AUser-Guide) has more information on how to use m1n1. To install on an OS container based on macOS <12.1, use `m1n1.macho`: ```shell kmutil configure-boot -c m1n1.macho -v <path to your OS volume> ``` To install on an OS container based on macOS >=12.1, use `m1n1.bin`: ```shell kmutil configure-boot -c m1n1.bin --raw --entry-point 2048 --lowest-virtual-address 0 -v <path to your OS volume> ``` ## Payloads m1n1 supports running payloads by simple concatenation: ```shell $ cat build/m1n1.macho Image.gz build/dtb/apple-j274.dtb initramfs.cpio.gz > m1n1-payload.macho $ cat build/m1n1.bin Image.gz build/dtb/apple-j274.dtb initramfs.cpio.gz > m1n1-payload.bin ``` Supported payload file formats: * Kernel images (or compatible). Must be compressed or last payload. * Devicetree blobs (FDT). May be uncompressed or compressed. * Initramfs cpio images. Must be compressed.
