How to force run as AMD64 on m1 mac

[jbs-fm]

Hi all,

I've got some project specific issue where I can only run containers as amd64.

With docker compose we can do this by forcing a service to run as particular architecture, e.g:

platform: linux/amd64

I would like to run the whole k3s as amd64 like this, does anyone know if this is possible?

I'm currently trial and erroring this with the k3s ./docker-compose.yml, but running into issues & looking to see if there is an easy way out with k3d?

Many thanks!

Hi @jbs-fm , thanks for starting this discussion!
You can explicitly choose the amd image, e.g. k3d cluster create --image rancher/k3d:5.3.0-linux-amd64... I cannot test it, but this should work I guess.
