Linux builds are distributed as [**AppImage**](https://appimage.org) binaries for maximum compatibility. We've tested these on distributions as old as **Ubuntu 16.04** and as new as **Manjaro 21.2.2**, but if you run into issues on your specific distro, [please let us know](/#social). Binaries for **x86_64**, **ARM32** and **ARM64** architectures are available; 32-bit x86 is currently not available due to a [packaging issue](https://github.com/AppImageCrafters/AppRun/issues/37). Of course, building 86Box from source and running it with system libraries is still an option, and there's a [community-maintained Arch Linux AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/86box) which does just that.

**IMPORTANT UPDATE:** On Linux, you should place the `roms/` directory (containing the ROM set) in the **same directory** as the `.AppImage` file ([example](/assets/images/v3.2/roms.png)\). A global ROM path and a manager interface will be added in a future release. For now, you can manage emulated machines through one of the following methods:

**IMPORTANT UPDATE #2:** Still on Linux, **86Box v3.2.1** (link above, [changelog below](#v3-2-1)\) should fix the issue with mouse capture dropping the emulation speed down to 0%.

Continuing on the cross-platform development effort started during [v3.0]({% post_url 2021-12-01-86box-v3-0 %}#one-more-thing-linux-is-coming) and first released for Linux on [v3.2]({% post_url 2022-02-16-86box-v3-2 %}#now-with-linux), we now provide **Intel macOS** builds of 86Box. These should work on macOS High Sierra 10.13 and newer, natively on Intel Macs and through Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon Macs. [dob205](https://github.com/dob205) was our main macOS tester, while [**jgilje**](https://github.com/jgilje), [**Cacodemon345**](https://github.com/Cacodemon345) and other contributors did the OS integration work.

As with Linux, there is currently no 86Box manager for macOS, but you can manage emulated machines by **making copies** of `86Box.app` on different places (just dragging it to `/Applications` is currently not recommended); the `roms/` directory (containing the ROM set) must be placed next to the .app ([example](/assets/images/v3.4/roms.png)\), and the emulated machine's files will be saved next to the .app as well.

Apply it by deleting `ms5119.bin` from the machine's `nvr` directory, then start the machine and check if the BIOS version displayed below the American Megatrends logo is `A37EB` instead of the previous `A37E`.
