Hi folks,

I see that there are now [aarch64 fedora kinoite base images available on quay.io](https://quay.io/repository/fedora-ostree-desktops/kinoite?tab=tags). Has anyone tried recently to build an aarch64 aurora image? Are there any known blockers to aarch64?

I want to make some tweaks for a custom image of Aurora and I would like to work on them from my macbook without emulation.

Thank you!

What would you run it on? There aren’t nearly as many packages on Flatpak, and many of the Flatpaks that come with Aurora may not have ARM builds.

Not saying you shouldn’t try 😉

Fair point haha. My situation is that I have a desktop machine at my office that I want to install aurora on, but at home I only have a mac. This is just so that I can tinker on my machine setup without being in my office.
