Try running a Tart VM on your Apple Silicon device running macOS 12.0 (Monterey) or later (will download a 25 GB image):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install cirruslabs/cli/tart
|
|
tart clone ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-ventura-base:latest ventura-base
|
|
tart run ventura-base
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
??? info "Manual installation from a release archive"
|
|
It's also possible to manually install `tart` binary from the latest released archive:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -LO https://github.com/cirruslabs/tart/releases/latest/download/tart.tar.gz
|
|
tar -xzvf tart.tar.gz
|
|
./tart.app/Contents/MacOS/tart clone ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-ventura-base:latest ventura-base
|
|
./tart.app/Contents/MacOS/tart run ventura-base
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please note that `./tart.app/Contents/MacOS/tart` binary is required to be used in order to trick macOS
|
|
to pick `tart.app/Contents/embedded.provisionprofile` for elevated privileges that Tart needs.

## SSH access
|
|
|
|
If the guest VM is running and configured to accept incoming SSH connections you can conveniently connect to it like so:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh admin@$(tart ip macos-ventura-base)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Mounting directories
|
|
|
|
To mount a directory, run the VM with the `--dir` argument:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
tart run --dir=project:~/src/project vm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here, the `project` specifies a mount name, whereas the `~/src/project` is a path to the host's directory to expose to the VM.
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to mount directories in read-only mode by adding a third parameter, `ro`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
tart run --dir=project:~/src/project:ro vm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To mount multiple directories, repeat the `--dir` argument for each directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
tart run --dir=www1:~/project1/www --dir=www2:~/project2/www
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that the first parameter in each `--dir` argument must be unique, otherwise only the last `--dir` argument using that name will be used.
|
|
|
|
Note: to use the directory mounting feature, the host needs to run macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or newer.
|
|
|
|
### Accessing mounted directories in macOS guests
|
|
|
|
All shared directories are automatically mounted to `/Volumes/My Shared Files` directory.
|
|
|
|
The directory we've mounted above will be accessible from the `/Volumes/My Shared Files/project` path inside a guest VM.
|
|
|
|
Note: to use the directory mounting feature, the guest VM needs to run macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or newer.
|
|
|
|
??? tip "Changing mount location"
|
|
It is possible to remount the directories after a virtual machine is started by running the following commands:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo umount "/Volumes/My Shared Files"
|
|
mkdir ~/workspace
|
|
mount_virtiofs com.apple.virtio-fs.automount ~/workspace
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After running the above commands the direcory will be available at `~/workspace/project`
|
|
|
|
### Accessing mounted directories in Linux guests
|
|
|
|
To be able to access the shared directories from the Linux guest, you need to manually mount the virtual filesystem first:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mount -t virtiofs com.apple.virtio-fs.automount /mnt/shared
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The directory we've mounted above will be accessible from the `/mnt/shared/project` path inside a guest VM.
