   Here is an answer from a guy called Woodmeister in Apple's own forums:   
      
   "The Linux kernel itself can easily be ported to the M1.   
   Where the real problem comes in is with supporting drivers   
   for the M1 hardware, especially video and memory management   
   which is completely different on M1 Macs now. Apple isn't quite   
   so forthcoming on the low level interfaces required, even with   
   commercial vendors.   
      
   As far as booting, most Linux distros I know of don't like any boot   
   loaders other than Linux friendly ones like GRUB even on PC platforms.   
   As of now, zero exist for the M1 and because of Apple boot security they   
   may never."   
      
   You Apple zealots might as well be muhammedans since you are very   
   comfortable lying to protect your god.
