    1: [[!meta title="NetBSD/evbarm on Apple Silicon"]]
    2: 
    3: Initial support was added to NetBSD -current for Apple M1 systems on Aug 30, 2021.
    4: 
    5: # Installation
    6: 
    7: Please note that installation on an Apple M1 requires macOS 11.2 or later to be installed first.
    8: 
    9: - Uncompress <http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/latest/evbarm-aarch64/binary/gzimg/arm64.img.gz> and write it to a USB drive. *Make sure this file was built after Aug 30, 2021!*
   10: 
   11: - Build and install `sysutils/u-boot-apple-m1` from pkgsrc.
   12:    - The bootloader for the Mac mini (M1, 2020) will be installed to `/usr/pkg/share/u-boot/apple-m1/u-boot-t8103-j274.macho`.
   13:    - j274 - Mac mini (M1, 2020)
   14:    - j293 - MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)
   15: 
   16: - Boot the M1 system into 1TR mode by holding the power button at startup. Until the "Loading startup options..." message is displayed, then select Options.
   17:    - In the Utilities menu, select Terminal to bring up a root shell.
   18: 
   19: - Downgrade security and disable SIP. (If you get any errors while doing this, first run `csrutil clear`, reboot, and try again)
   20:     - `# bputil -nkcas`
   21:     - `# csrutil disable`
   22: 
   23: - Copy the u-boot.macho from pkgsrc to the mini over the network (curl, sftp, etc).
   24: 
   25: - Install the new bootloader:
   26:     - `# kmutil configure-boot -c u-boot-t8103-j274.macho -C -v /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/`
   27: 
   28: - Reboot with a arm64.img USB drive plugged in.
