Hello yocto-devs,

I'm new to the yocto project and trying to set up a build environment on my M1 Mac which is arm64 architecture. 

I'm following the steps as mentioned in below link:

But it is always pulling up containers based on amd64 architecture. Are there any updated steps/link to set up a build environment specific to M1 Mac(arm64)?

Looking at Docker Hub, none of the published Crops containers are built for ARM64. You can try building the containers yourself, making sure to pick base distros that are available for ARM64.

Note that there are plenty of reports of Docker performing poorly on Macs, probably because of the file system implementation. You may be better off using a full VM via e.g. UTM.
