ARM Support

[ekristen]

• SIFT CLI replaced with cast
• Figure out what packages do not support arm64

Just tried on a fresh install (jammy on multipass on M1), currently at a 0% stage:

This above issue is still unresolved. Is there any way that I could help fixing it?

ARM support is tricky. We'd like to support it but there are a lot of tools that simply won't work. This set of aerrors is mainly around getting saltstack to install properly. I have an open issue to improve the saltstack install process but haven't had a chance to address it. Even with fixing this issue, ARM support is a long way off, last time I tested, it was about a 50% success rate of installs.

Hi @ekristen, any chances of installing SIFT using cast on a Silicone Mac?

I was trying to install SIFT using cast but encountering the error message: FATA[0016] received error code 404 attempting to download.

Looking forward to run SIFT on a Silicone Mac

With recent removal of Intel based macs, I looking forward for SIFT to be implemented for use in Apple Silicon. Any updates on this please.
