    Big Sur installation

    Is it possible to install Big Sur at the moment? When trying to install it using an installer app downloaded from the App Store Parallels says that it needs an ISO or a VHDX image instead.

    Convert a Physical Mac into a VM

    I have an external, bootable USB drive with OSX 11.5 installed and would like to convert it to a VM on my Macbook... I use the drive as a development environment and want it now to be a VM on my Macbook rather than on an external drive. How would I do this (I know this can be done in Fusion)?
