Well it's running. Familiar Unix desktop, what can I say.

Had to change the resolution back to 1024x768 because X11 was scrolling the viewport. Tried QXL and virtio, same for both. But 1024x768 is fine.

Network is a bigger issue, virtio-net nor e1000 get me a working network interface.

Dunno what it was with the networking earlier but e1000 did work. Success! 🥳 #pkgsrc

Anyone running my arm64 macOS binary packages from https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/install-on-macos/ on Sonoma 14.5 or newer may want to upgrade to the newer package sets that I've now built:

$ sed -i -e 's/12.3/14.5/' /opt/pkg/etc/pkg_install.conf /opt/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf
$ pkgin -f update
$ pkgin upgrade

I'll get new bootstrap kits and a proper announcement done soon, but this is all you need to do if you already have the 12.3 packages installed.

The 14.5 SDK is now required by some software.
