Kubuntu mit Parallels auf Apple Silicon

Thought i would post this since i've been trying to figure it out.

1. Get a copy of ubuntu server arm64

2. Install the "normal" option

3. sudo apt update

4. sudo apt upgrade

5. install parallels tools

   1. click the alarm looking button

   2. it will put in the CD

   3. sudo mkdir /media/cdrom

   4. sudo mount -o exec /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom

   5. cd /media/cdrom

   6. sudo ./install

   7. reboot

6. sudo apt update

7. sudo apt upgrade

8. sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop

9. reboot (shutdown -r now)

10. Internet works, but Discover update system has problems

11. Open /etc/netplan/50-installer-config.yaml

12. add "renderer: NetworkManager" after the "version: 2" and delete “ethernets: “ section with the adapter name and dhcp setting. (Network manager will add it automatically). Snap will not work if u don’t delete ethernets.

13. to avoid a two minute boot wait penalty, disable the servers default systemd networkd service (sudo systemctl disable systemd-networkd.service), which will be replaced by the NetworkManager service on next boot.

14. save and reboot

15. had to re-install parallels tools manually. Mount the iso located here and run the install gui script: Applications > Parallels Desktop > Contents > Resources > Tools > pr-tools-lin-arm.iso

16. remove fwupd and fwupd-discover backend with sudo apt-get remove fwupd plasma-discover-backend-fwupd. Without that the "get updates" function of discover will hang.

17. reboot

18. thats it
