I have a 2023 Macbook Pro with Apple M2 silicon. I am trying to install Debian 11 as a guest OS, but keep getting the error that "No bootable medium is found." I am mounting the arm64 .iso of Debian found here. This is happening with every OS I try to install on VirtualBox (Ubuntu Server, Fedora, Debian).

  • this question asks about M1 silicon, my question is about the new M2 silicon, therefore this question is not a duplicate
  • I do have the developer preview of VirtualBox installed

    The issue is as VirtualBox home page starts "VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product" It does not run on Apple Silicon. There is a developer preview but better to use another VM. – mmmmmm May 07 '23 at 20:46

    Did you download the Developer Preview for ARM/Apple Silicon Macs? https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads – Allan May 07 '23 at 21:01
  • @Allan yes I have the beta developer preview – Brigadeiro May 08 '23 at 01:02
  • In this case the answer is for Apple Silicon as a whole so both m1 and m2 – mmmmmm May 10 '23 at 10:01
