ROCKNIX GENERIC_X64 build 20260819.

  • ROCKNIX-GENERIC_X64.x86_64-20260819.utm.zip (recommended on Apple silicon Macs) — unzip and double-click the .utm bundle. It carries the canonical Q35/UEFI, Haswell-v4, 4-vCPU, 8-GiB, VirtIO/512-byte disk, virtio-gpu-gl, network, audio, input, and serial-console configuration.
  • ROCKNIX-GENERIC_X64.x86_64-20260819.qcow2 (recommended on Linux) — the same 16-GiB disk. Launch it with projects/ROCKNIX/devices/GENERIC_X64/vm/generic-x64-vm run <qcow2> so Linux uses the same guest-visible machine profile.
  • ROCKNIX-GENERIC_X64.x86_64-20260819.img.gz — raw image for flashing or other hypervisors. In a VM, give it a 16G+ disk before first boot and expose 512-byte sectors. On real hardware it resizes to fill the card.

Linux uses KVM acceleration when available; UTM uses QEMU TCG for x86_64 on Apple silicon. The accelerator necessarily differs, but the CPU model and virtual hardware presented to ROCKNIX are defined by the same versioned profile.
