- RAM: (totalRamAvailable / 2) with a min of 2GB and a max of 8GB
- DISK: 128G (137438953472)

anka mount and the automated current directory mounting for anka run are not available by default with Big Sur VMs. You can install addons using anka start -o addons 11.0.X and then choosing Legacy addons under the installer Options to enable them, but it requires manual approval/steps through the GUI.
