Macbooks don’t have all the necessary ports, so find a dongle that can connect the external drive you have to USB-C (the port Macbooks do have) 1.Raspberry Pi OS Desktop iso disk image.To do the following steps, here are the tools you’ll need: Moreover, I’ll be listing the pros and cons of using a Raspberry Pi emulator as well as the methods I’d use for emulating a Raspberry Pi on different OS systems. If you need more clarification on these steps, the rest of the article will dissect each one in full detail.
Attach the disk image and the external drive to the VM.Flash an external drive with the Raspberry Pi image.Install the Raspberry Pi Desktop iso disk image.To emulate the Raspberry Pi OS (Operating System) on a Macbook, you need to perform the following steps: Consequently, that made me wonder: “How could I emulate Raspberry Pi on my laptop?” Unfortunately for me, I have an M1 Macbook whose architecture isn’t supported by VirtualBox. Now we’re left with all we need to start the RPi distribution so let’s start it like: qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -cpu arm1176 -hda debian6-19-04-2012.INSTALL Mac OS on ANY Windows Laptop *Pear OS* ! brew install homebrew/dupes/apple-gcc42Īnd then compile and install qemu like: brew install qemu -use-gcc The image file is created and located as arch/arm/boot/zImage.ĭue to a bug of a white screen hanging QEMU if compiled with llvm one must install the package apple-gcc42 from the homebrew’s dupes repository. If it does, one must create the file: sudo touch /usr/local/include/elf.hĮdit it and write the following: #include Īnd follow through the building process: make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/rpi/arm-cs-tools/bin/arm-none-eabi-k Note that the compilation should fail and complain about an inclusion in scripts/mod/mk_elfconfig. Save the configuration and let’s build the kernel afterwards. Make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/rpi/arm-cs-tools/bin/arm-none-eabi- menuconfig Grab the config file and configure the kernel: cp arch/arm/configs/bcmrpi_cutdown_defconfig. The RPi Kernel Compilation mkdir ~/rpi/kernel PREFIX=$HOME/rpi/arm-cs-tools make install-crossĮcho “export PATH=$HOME/rpi/arm-cs-tools/bin:$PATH” » ~/.bash_profile The Cross-Compiling Tool for the ARM architecture.Īssuming one already have the latest Xcode and command line tools from Apple Developer and homebrew installed, then should install the dependencies: brew install mpfr gmp libmpc libelf texinfo.A Cross-Compiling Tool for the CPU architecture of RPi.To set up an emulated environment of the Raspberry Pi software on OSX one will need:
