Hi there, roughly how much free disk space do I need for an installation? I see it recommends creating a 64GB qcow, but what would the bare minimum be? And what about the MacOS installer image download size?

Bare minimum would be around 20GB, but you'll find it hard to get any apps installed (like Xcode, which is at least 8GB compressed).

Got it, thanks very much for the quick response.

The jumpstart download is ~500MB compressed (2GB uncompressed), the installation files are uncompressed and measure 6.5GB.
