Asahi Linux
VerifiedAsahi Linux is an open-source project that ports Fedora to Apple computers that use Apple's silicon-powered (AArch64) processors, including installation scripts, drivers and documentation. As these Macs do not support booting from external storage devices, installation is carried out in a MacOS terminal via a Python script that creates a new hard disk partition and offers a choice of several installation scenarios, including two desktop options with KDE Plasma or GNOME. The project's goal is to polish Asahi Linux to the point where it can be used as a daily operating system on any modern Mac computer.
