Vagrant does not create images

Hello,
I am using the GitHub project to create a k8s cluster on a Mac OS machine.

During the setup it asks me to choose the network to be used. I choose all 15 of them one by one but all of them failed.

   ~/L/Cl/O/k/c/certified-kubernetes-administrator-course/k/virtualbox    master  vagrant up  1 ✘  6s   10:10:39 PM  

Here is my ifconfig. I think its the utun5 which must be used but its not listed among the 15 bridge network interfaces.

What kind of Mac are you using? AFAIK, Virtualbox and vagrant work poorly if at all on Apple Silicon Macs. Poorly enough that I don’t believe our scripts will work with Virtualbox 7.1, nor will Virtualbox 7.1 work with the current version of vagrant. For this reason, we recommend using multipass instead, and we supply scripts for this.

Thank you Rob,
I am using Apple M2 Pro on Sequoia 15.4.1

Would you be so kind as to send me the link for multipass?

The tutorial starts here.
