Interesting, what devices would you want to pass through?

The Linux VM host and guest components are all custom, as well as the daemon that manages machines. It currently uses LXC as the runtime but that's being replaced as well. For containers we run a standard Docker engine inside a special

Can you share more details? OrbStack has always supported inotify/fanotify (Linux fs watching APIs) on bind mounts and most people use watchers with no issues. Happy to look into whatever you're running into: danny@orbstack.dev

We're working on block device passthrough for the builtin SD reader.

That's my bad, I used the example alpine commands and the official alpine doesn't have init. It's supported if you build an image with systemd installed

Yep! Still refining it but isolated machines now have fine-grained settings for filesystem mounts, network isolation, SSH agent forwarding, and CPU/memory/disk limits

Curious if you've tried OrbStack? There's always more work to do (test workloads appreciated!) but we've put a lot of effort into optimizing for small files and other common developer workloads in OrbStack's customized f

Ahh those were good times, glad you came across it :)

Good catch, I tried the example alpine commands and there was no init system. Makes sense if it's based on OCI images

We just released this in OrbStack :) https://docs.orbstack.dev/features/usb Blog post soon

(OrbStack dev here.) Instead of Virtualization.framework, we have a custom Rust virtualization stack with custom devices and protocols for things like filesystem sharing. It's a highly optimized vertically integrated stack specifically

We have isolated machines in OrbStack now! Isolated machines have options for network isolation and mounting only specific paths (or none).

We're releasing USB in OrbStack tomorrow :)

what tasks can the model do out of the box? was each of the examples a different fine tuned model?

Love to hear that :) sent you an email about the k8s IPv6 issue — should be able to get it fixed in OrbStack

Drop-in: "orb" to start, stop it + uninstall + restart Colima to revert. It can optionally install OrbStack's bundled `docker` and `docker compose` binaries, but you can also keep using the Homebrew ones.

The issue submitter just happened to be running LXD in their OrbStack machine.

Sorry, no plans for that. That vertical integration is a key part of OrbStack — it's not just for nice extras/integrations.

OrbStack domains can be nice but you don't have to use them. It's fully compatible with Compose, so you can just run the same commands with no changes to your setup. Did that not work for you?

It's a shared VM and kernel, so the security boundary between containers is only as strong as typical Linux containers, and we don't really use the VM as a strong security boundary right now. The security model is similar to runni

It's because Rosetta doesn't seem to emulate /proc/cpuinfo, so the contents reflect that of the arm64 host.

Love to hear that. We're actually a small team at OrbStack now!

We use a custom virtualization stack instead of QEMU. It makes a lot of performance and stability improvements possible.

Nice to see this here :) I work on OrbStack. Happy to answer questions!

Dev here — I've been meaning to update the Homebrew cask to be more complete on zap, but there's a good reason that all of these are needed: - ~/.orbstack - Docker context that points to OrbStack (for CLI) - "source ~&#x

(dev here) Yes. I've spent quite a bit of time on scheduling. It's more nuanced than what this article says and there are ways to influence it (but sorry, can't share too many details). OrbStack tends to use E cores more than
