part 2: virtualizing pop os on m1 Apple Silicon

Virtualizing Pop Os! on m1 Apple Silicon

 

Using UTM.  It works! Its fast!

Summary: Ubuntu server arm64 + pop os desktop (arm64)

 

install ms fonts for linux

https://www.linuxcapable.com/how-to-install-microsoft-fonts-on-ubuntu-linux/

 

pop os, opensshd, emacs,rust-mode,starship , smb share, bionic A72

I'd already installed it on a 500GB HDD.  

OpenSSH Server

installing open ssh server

good troubleshooting tips

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

default, leave it commented

#PubkeyAuthentication yes

change from no to yes

PasswordAuthentication yes

 

restart ssh server and then check that it is running

sudo systemctl restart ssh
sudo systemctl status ssh

 

On your client machine

generate the public key (don't use sudo)

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096

copy it to the open ssh server host (your pop os machine)

ssh-copy-id user@pop-os.local

 

Looking at the sshd logs:

journalctl -u ssh

Change hostname

Change default hostname to a new one.

 

sudo hostnamectl set-hostname tap-matra

 

 

 

 

Installing starship

requires font

https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads

Try it with FiraCode Nerd Font

mkdir ~/.fonts

unzip FiraCode.zip

fc-cache -f -v ~/.fonts

Installing emacs-nox

From PPA:

https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2022/06/install-gnu-emacs-28-1-ubuntu-22-04-20-04/ 

## Installing emacs from PPA ##
sudo apt remove --autoremove emacs emacs-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1/emacs
sudo apt install emacs-nox emacs-common

Install rust-mode for emacs

https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-mode?tab=readme-ov-file#melpa

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Init-File.html 

https://melpa.org/#/getting-started

create 

touch ~/.emacs.d/init.el

add lines to init.el

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)

 

Now you can install rust-mode with:

M-x package-install rust-mode

And put this in your config to load rust-mode automatically:

(require 'rust-mode)

 

Mount share on remote host

gio mount smb://hostname.local/Downloads
