While this only flips what's the default, @AkihiroSuda can we first solve #1940? |

examples/experimental/vz.yaml is retained until v1.0 RC, to avoid breaking existing bookmarks. Signed-off-by: Akihiro Suda <akihiro.suda.cz@hco.ntt.co.jp>

VZ is now the default type for new instances >= 13.5, unless the config is incompatible with vz (e.g., `firmware.legacyBIOS=true`, `mountType=9p`). Existing instances will continue to use QEMU by default, unless `vz-identifier` is present in the instance directory. Run `limactl start` with `--debug` to see how the vmType is resolved.

Might also be worth waiting for #1957 to be mitigated or resolved |
I think that is the plan to delay the 1.0 release until VZ can safely become the default. Unfortunately this has become even more complex with QEMU seemingly broken on Apple M3 chips #1996. So people with a brand new machine currently have no choice than to switch to VZ. |
Just to clarify that despite the title (which I now changed) this was not specific to vz, and we also got corruption with qemu |
@lima-vm/maintainers Are we in a good state to merge this? (after rebasing) |
Finch is going to switch the default to vz soon |
Podman Machine VM changed from qemu to vz (through their own vfkit wrapper), in 5.0: https://blog.podman.io/2024/03/podman-5-0-is-around-the-corner/ (v5.0.0 tagged Mar 19) |
