Her video is a great recommendation. Thanks! I love the way it uses macOS native tools to make the installation less tense. I’ll absolutely be installing it when the time comes. Thanks again!
What do you mean by macOS Native Tools?
Using Linux tool to resist partitions and install a boot loader can back fire sometimes if the original system doesn’t play nice with it.
Avahi uses macOS own partitioner via command line. You can switch back and forth between the two systems easily and not worry so much about losing access to one or the other after an update.
I installed NixOS with Asahi kernel manually, I partitioned free space given from Asahi using cfdisk and there's no problem about that.
Good to know.
