VirtualBox 6.1.30/Monterey/M1Pro - will not install!

Post by mwra »

Using a new M1Pro chip Macbook Pro running macOS 12.0.1 (Monterey)

Installer fails with the message:
Unsupported hardware architecture detected!

The installer has detected an unsupported architecture. VirtualBox only runs on the amd64 architecture.
≥and the install aborts.

I thought v6.1.30 was supposed to resolve this, or are there separate issues with the OS (Monterey) vs the chip type (M1Pro vs Intel)?

Sadly the release/change nottes are so cryptic it's not possible to tell.

Thanks!
