  @pillbox1234567 Thanks for the suggestion. I turned Viridian off on the cloned VM, and it did not make a difference.

  Interesting note that you’ve seen it cause boot issues on certain Linux VMs. I have not experienced that behavior yet but will keep an eye out for it.

  @Tom-Elliott I really appreciate that you are putting effort into providing more frequent releases, which makes it easier for everyone to deploy new security fixes in time. Keep up the good work!

  Hello,

  We are preparing a lab with 44 MacBooks (Apple M4, 16 GB RAM).

  Currently, we have not implemented any imaging solution yet. At the moment, we only use our Samba Active Directory domain for user authentication (LDAP/Kerberos) on the Macs.

  All machines have the exact same hardware configuration, and we need a way to create a standardized macOS image and replicate it across all devices. This deployment process is performed once every semester, so we are looking for a reliable and repeatable solution.

  We are evaluating the FOG Project as a possible solution, but we are unsure whether it supports cloning and deploying macOS images on Apple Silicon devices (M4).

  We would like to ask:

  Is FOG suitable for capturing and deploying macOS images on Apple Silicon Macs?
  How does the cloning process for macOS work in this scenario?
  If FOG is not recommended, what tools or best practices would you suggest for mass macOS deployment and domain integration with Samba AD?

  Thank you for your guidance.

  @heix75 No.

  Not because it’s not a QOL improvement (it is) but because what you see in 1.5.x.x is NOT what is the end goal.

  If you want to see what the UX is moving toward install the version of FOG on working-1.6.

  You’ll understand (I hope), then, why I’m saying this.
