Running Debian in a VM on Apple Silicon?

[Feek]

How can I do this? I don't want the GUI, I'd just like to be able to run a Debian VM on my Studio.

I tried Virtualbox but couldn't persuade it to boot from the Debian image I'd downloaded.

Ideally I'm looking for a free solution.

Thanks.

This will need to be emulated I think so UTM should work

Can't I run ARM Debian virtualised rather then emulated?

Feek, this should work fine on VMware Fusion Tech Preview,

Grab the arm64 ISO from https://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst

Drag the ISO into the new VM window in Fusion. I just downloaded it and it installs fine. Don't add a desktop if you don't want to use one.

Thanks, got these and will give it a try over the next couple of days.

Working perfectly using Fusion.
