I am trying to install Cisco Packet Tracer in Ubuntu running in Parallels on an M1 MacBook Air.
So when I go to install the .deb file I get an error saying Wrong architecture AMD64 run dpkg --add-architecture to add it and update afterwards. I was running a program called app grid to unpack and install.
I have run that command in terminal but it doesn't work. I have also run the following in terminal:
parallels@ubuntu-linux-20-04-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg -i /home/parallels/Downloads/CiscoPacketTracer_811_Ubuntu_64bit.deb
dpkg: error processing archive /home/parallels/Downloads/CiscoPacketTracer_811_Ubuntu_64bit.deb (--install):
package architecture (amd64) does not match system (arm64)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/home/parallels/Downloads/CiscoPacketTracer_811_Ubuntu_64bit.deb
SO I assume that I need a version that supports ARM, which is weird because packet tracer works fine in virtual Windows 11
Any ideas?
