Hello! I own an M1 Macbook Air. It is my understanding that Apple tends to stop supporting OS updates after 7 years of a product's release.
Despite almost 6 years having passed since its debut, the M1 is still a very capable and power efficient SoC in 2026. Given this, I plan on keeping my Macbook Air for many years to come. OpenBSD can currently be installed on an M1 Mac using the Asahi Linux installer and a bootable medium. However, it can only be installed as a supplementary Operating System in addition to macOS. Once Apple stops supporting updates for the machine, eventually most apps are going to require a version of macOS which is newer than the last supported macOS version supported for the device. At this point, it does not make much sense to install side-by-side with macOS. Thus, when this occurs, it would be at least *my* preference to entirely replace macOS and solely run OpenBSD as the sole operating system on this device. Is there any way that we could theoretically add an installation option to the installer when it runs on these devices to be able to install OpenBSD as the sole operating system for the whole drive?
