I just downloaded the release file and got this error:

OS: macOS Ventura Version 13.0 Beta (22A5321d)

The issue seems to arise if you open RosettaVM and then close it without indicating an installation ISO. To fix it you need to go to ~/Library/Containers and remove the com.diddledani.RosettaVM folder (the sandbox of the RosettaVM application)

Hi, i dont see the any "com.diddledani.Rosettavm" folder in my computer so how to solve it, still crash thank you

In my case, the problem was that the code tries to generate a 64GB disk image for the VM installation, which my machine didn't have enough space for.

Reducing the amount solved the problem (line 101 in AppDelegate.swift): try mainDiskFileHandle.truncate(atOffset: 64 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024)
