![]() The Ubuntu site tends to take you to the Intel version, so make sure you grab an ARM download. Download the Ubuntu Server ISO image for the version you’re interested in (I used 20.10).Download and install UTM - you can get a free version, or pay a small amount for it to get updates and to its support development.Here’s what I did to get myself up-and-running with an Ubuntu virtual machine running on UTM, editing code with VScode’s Remote-SSH extension. But a bit of searching led me to UTM as a MacOS hypervisor that would support the M1 processor. ![]() For a couple of minutes I seriously entertained the idea of returning this machine and getting another Intel-based one. I recently got a MacBookPro built on Apple’s M1 ARM CPU, and my usual set-up is impossible because VirtualBox doesn’t (yet) support ARM processors. Using VScode to SSH “remotely” into these VMs is a great set-up for development, for me. On my Intel-based Macs I have been using VirtualBox and Vagrant to run Linux virtual machines for years.
