i am fortunate enough to not need a vm often, but the last time i had to use one, i just didnt bother with win11 and used a win 10 installer image. also i think the xiaomi tool didnt/doesnt work with usb 3.0 so i had to use usb 2.0 drivers in order to flash
Yes, with Xiaomi there are also Linux terminal app and you can flash through adb/fastboot but i was talking about some obscure hardware like speedtrum cpus and others also obscure memory manufacturers when i ressurect usb flash drives or chinese ssd, i am using Xiaomi poco x3 pro 8/256 and Xiaomi redmi note 4 4/64 and alldocube iplay 30 pro 6/128 and ressurect second hand devices as hobby, when looking for rom reviews i check “channel48” this guy reviews new roms on old hardware
you can flash phones through qemu
I tried install windows on qemu through gnome boxes, it didn’t go well, even though i used gui only options, no tinkering
