I can't install NS8 on Hyper-V in Windows 11 arm64

Support

Hi,
I’m starting to try the new NS8. I have already performed at couple of installations to test the various features and i find the environment very interesting. Then I wanted to “bring it with me” in an installation on my laptop, a Surface Pro X.
So let’s talk about a Windows arm64 machine, always with Hyper-V as hypervisor.
I performed the same steps in all the installations successful on Hyper-V, always using clean CentOS Stream 9 as base OS. However, on my Surface the installation fails with the following error:
"Running Setup.py Install for Cchardet … Error
Error: Subprocess-Exited-With-Error

× Running Setup.py Install for Cchardet Did Not Run Successfully.
│ Exit Code: 1 "
Any suggestions?
Greetings.

Hi Alberto, thank you for testing ns8 on the ARM architecture. We must confess we didn’t it yet!

The pip command didn’t find a package already compiled for ARM and is attempting to compile it with GCC.

After solving this issue, probably you’re finding more!

I can’t help you now to sort it out. Hopefully someone interested in the ARM support will step in :pray:

I’d like multi-arch support for ns8 but it’s not my priority. It’s maybe better to state it somewhere…

Hi Davide,

I’d like multi-arch support for ns8 but it’s not my priority. It’s maybe better to state it somewhere…

I undersand it very well!
I tryed the installation because in the FAQ area of NS8 QuickStart is instead declared that all architectures of the OS ued as base are supported.
Certainly this will happen in the future.
Thank you!

Yes, hopefully more arches will be supported by ns8 in the future.

People from this community like you started to test ns7 on ARM and did a great job: they finally build ARM support for ns7!

Meanwhile it’s better to clarify the current state:
