HomeBrew VS osxfuse

Don't worry too much about software, you'll find what you need when the need arises. Maybe install Homebrew, it will come in handy later.

Anyhow, I managed to get to the point where I need to run brew, but I don't have that installed. When I go to the linked site https://brew.sh and try to run the command to install it, I just get "Invalid variable name".

I recommend installing homebrew so you can install/update applications from the command line.

Brew & macports have libvirt & virt-manager that are used to manage qemu via GUI.

To install the Homebrew package manager, see: link

In case you're not not aware of it, virtually all devs on mac use homebrew. I slide nearly seamlessly between WSL and mac depending on whether I feel like using my desktop or laptop at the moment. The differences largely boil down to whether I apt install or brew install things. And as much as I'm loathe to admit it, vscode + vim plugin these days gives emacs + evil a pretty good run for the money when it comes to extensible IDEs.

There’s no practical difference between trusting that a popular GitHub account hasn’t been compromised (see: https://brew.sh) and your distro or other package managers haven’t been compromised when it comes to machine setup. If security is that much of a priority you run your own mirrors and don’t pull from public repositories/registries. IME you want to do that for availability anyways if this is for work. Nothing worse than a failed build for a hot-fix because some package registry is temporarily offline.

Others have offered solutions, but for future reference the actual Terminal commands that failed would be useful; "File not found" sounds like a path error, "Command not found" sounds fixable via Homebrew or Macports

TL;DR, about the section that states software from other UNIX-like OSes is hard to port to MacOS, how about homebrew and macports?

First, you’ll want to install some base dependencies for your operating system. We will use brew 27 for this. If you don’t have brew installed you can do so by running:

Hello 12345sixsixsix, I am enclosing details. 1. Administrator access is required to run StoreOpen Software with Windows 10 & 11. 2. Currently not supported with HPE Path Failover drivers. 3. Mac OSX 10.12 through 11.5 4. StoreOpen Software requires ‘FUSE for MacOS’ 3.5.4 and ICU 50.1.2. ‘FUSE for MacOS’ can be downloaded from https://osxfuse.github.io. 5. Supported on LTO-6, LTO-7, LTO-8 and LTO-9. 6. Supported on LTO-6, LTO-7, LTO-8

If you just need to mount EXT4 on a Mac then MacFuse might work for you (no need for Docker) - https://osxfuse.github.io

Fuse with NTFS-3G via Brew. Free, but requires some command line skill.

Paragon NTFS, Tuxera NTFS and free (but slow) macFUSE https://osxfuse.github.io/

Oooh man. This is the real answer to your problem then. lol Network sharing should be pretty easy to setup just follow the instructions on this link. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchlp1657/mac And then type the address you got into the file browser on the deck the exact same way they show it for a windows machine. Alternatively if you have a SD reader you can plug in. The Micro SD will be formatted to EXT4 and you can just install the drivers for that in mac. https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/uw9arx/mountread_an_ext4_formatted_drive/ ^ That's the discussion I found on it. You install this https://osxfuse.github.io/ And then add this plugin to it. https://github.com/gerard/ext4fuse

Well ISTR the code is auditable. https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse

You'll need macFUSE - https://osxfuse.github.io installed first.

Now on the mac you need to install macfuse https://osxfuse.github.io. This will require you to open system preferences > security and give the okay for the tool to install some extensions. And it will require a reboot.

Alright I’ve downloaded the Sidenoder files. The readme takes me to install macFUSE 4.2.4 So I need to install every asset separately?
