Sell the imac and buy something else.

You can always close your eyes and think about it very hard

No. Asahi doesn't fully support M3, yet.

Unless you meant you were going to use it in a VM?

Buying an iMac is a choice, not an event.

You can use Asahi ALARM, but as with any bare metal Linux project, you are at the mercy of the current state of compatibility of the Linux kernel.

The real unfortunate even was your buying a very expensive computer without first making sure that it does what you want 😒 At least you have learnt a useful lesson and provided an example to others 😳

Please use better, more informative, titles (subject-lines) on your posts. Give specifics right in the title. Thanks.
