Hi, I have started working through the ODM documentation.
On the page - Installation and Getting Started — OpenDroneMap 2.4.7 documentation these instructions -
Step 1. Check Virtualization Support
Open a Terminal window and type:
$ sysctl kern.hv_support
You will get a response similar to the following:
kern.hv_support: 1
Give me an error - “zsh: command not found: $”
I am doing my best to correct this, including following the steps here: How to Fix “Command Not Found” Errors in Mac Command Line
But with no success. Can anyone assist me with this? Please note while I have used python in the past I am new to configuring.
My specs - iMac 17,1 3.4GHz 24GB RAM OS11.3.1

Ah, that dollar sign at the beginning of a command for a terminal shows you that it goes into a terminal. You don’t type that character.
Try the command again, but without the preceding $

Perhaps you have no idea just what you have helped with this. Thank you so much!
Rhetorical, but useful for future updates:
How is anyone supposed to “just know” this type of detail? Why would the documentation contain incorrect characters?
It is a convention, but a confusing one. We should probably find a better way to show this that’s a little more friendly.
I’m on holiday, but ping me in a couple weeks here and I’ll look into a better way to show this.
