I have a mac M1 and just wanted to know if this lab is possible to do with my system? I really want to do it, but unfortunately I don't have a windows computer.

Sadly I do not think this lab will work on an M1... These VMs expect an x86/x64 processor.

So using parallels won't work? Great post either way.

Correct. Even with parallels, you can only virtualize ARM-based OSes which these are not. That's not to say it can't be done with ARM OSes, but this guide doesn't follow those steps -- you'd have to venture out and give it a shot.

I'll give it a try. Thank you for responding.

It could be on a Linux host, I assume.

I was wondering this too. I assume it would work because I'm running the Linux Version of VMWare but you never know.
