Using baremetal Asahi Linux (Ubuntu) on M1 Mac Minis for homelab
I used an Asahi Linux distro (Ubuntu Server 22.04LTS) - https://github.com/UbuntuAsahi/ubuntu-asahi as Ubuntu is a supported distro and KVM host in Apache #CloudStack. I want to explore if this can be used as a viable KVM/virtualisation host. After initial install, I had to manually setup openssh and bridge-utils on it. Initial impressions - I was amazed, I knew the new Apple silicon chips are fast (tried on Mac OS) but on Linux on them is really "really" fast while consuming only 5-6W idle and about 20W for full "server" workloads (CPU) and it was very quiet and cool.

Confused about Asahi Linux Minimal -- ubuntu?
No, the minimal option is Arch Linux without a desktop environment (GUI). Asahi aims to put Linux in general (maybe Ubuntu one day) on the Apple silicon Macs. While there is way to install Ubuntu, it's not supported by the Asahi team. Here it is: https://github.com/tobhe/ubuntu-asahi

Installing Kubuntu on Asahi?
On the Alternative Distros wiki page there's a link to a project that let's you install Ubuntu on Asahi Linux. However, I perfer KDE over GNOME, so is there a way to install Kubuntu instead of plain Ubuntu?
- Gnome Wayland is amazing <3

Ubuntu 22.10 running on M1 MacBook Air (bare metal)
Never really seen anybody on the internet write a guide to install Ubuntu on apple silicon based macs, so I’ve decided to come out the public and publish a guide on how to install Ubuntu on apple silicon based macs. First and foremost, go to this GitHub page: https://github.com/tobhe/ubuntu-asahi and run these scripts in the macOS terminal: curl -sL https://tobhe.de/ubuntu/install > install.sh # Download less install.sh # Review sh install.sh # Run

Why did they choose arch Linux?
https://github.com/tobhe/ubuntu-asahi is working quite well for me on an M1 Air.
