What are you trying to do exactly?

#

What's the VM for?

#

FutureRestoring M1 iPad Pro from 15.5b4 to 15.4.1

#

I tried FutureRestoring on my Windows host but couldn't get it to work

VMs are a bit finicky with this stuff

#

oh sure Ill look into that. Is that just putting Ubuntu on a USB and running it on Windows?

lusty lintel
#

No

#

You boot into the USB drive by selecting it in the BIOS/UEFI menu

ahh

#

i see

#

I only have an 8GB USB, that wont be enough for my IPSW file along with the Ubuntu OS right

#

or does it utilize Windows storage?

I can guide you through it

#

Back up all your data first

#

In case something goes wrong

#

perfect, i've actually done it before so i think i remember how to do it. otherwise i can just look up a tutorial

lusty lintel
#

Yeah

#

Just shrink Windows, boot Ubuntu, and it should let you flash it on the unpartitioned storage
