The patches are being put upstream by developers far better than me - but it will take time. I just had a painful time trying to trim down the patchset but it's not likely to be below 100 for a while yet. The Asahi team are doing a good job of keeping them rebased onto the latest kernel and I'm using debian bookworm + Asahi kernel on an M1 MacBook Air very nicely as my work and general machine.
I was thinking if it is fairly easy to build a "feature-set" for M1/M2 that is pretty functional - it would allow the work to progress on getting the debian installer working for it for bookworm. The initial installing part is quite complex as there is no way around booting into apple's recovery mode to set up the boot stub. Once that is done then you can build and install Asahi kernels packages as normal: make -j 8 bindeb-pkgdpkg -i ../linux-image-5.19.0-asahi-00001-gddbaa60fc907_5.19.0-asahi-00001-gddbaa60fc907-9_arm64.deb No need to touch the installer again If the bookworm debian installer supports apple M1 it will be really useful to many people.
