I'm using a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro (13-inch), with Sonoma 14.4.1 currently installed.
Decided to shrink the main partition to the "minimum" size for now, which is not a fast process but it's moving along in the right direction! (Guessing it will take 15 to 20 minutes max)

Partitioning done. So far, so good! Pretty straightforward instructions. I'm going with the KDE Plasma version.

It's installed! Crossing my fingers now, see you on the other side.

Hello from the Fedora side! Everything seems to be working so far. That was relatively easy!

Well, this unfortunately needs to be said: this is the hottest my MacBook Pro has ever been. All I'm doing is downloading games via Steam -- which is technically running under x86 emulation, to be fair. But I'm going to guess battery life under Fedora Asaha Remix won't be stellar compared to macOS.

@killyourfm I’m excited to hear how it is all working from your perspective, I have an M1 mini that I would love to dual Asahi

@killyourfm But why do you use such expensive hardware to run Fedora? 🙃😜

@killyourfm is this Fedora 41 otherwise you can test the upgrade as well, I’m upgrading now.

@tuxlife Yes, this is a clean install and my first time with Fedora Asahi Remix.

@s31bz I'm using the Fedora Asahi Remix that just got released today. I would assume so. Yea, looks like 6.12.1-404.asahi.fc41.aarch64+16k

@killyourfm ah dang, so latest and greatest. I was hoping for good battery life, myself! I wanted to try it on a M1 MBA.

@killyourfm Isn't downloading Steam games very CPU-intensive? On my PC, depending on the network and drive speed, my CPU can be pinned at 100% while downloading games. I think it's because of the compression they use.
