While waiting for Mojca's attempts, for the moment I solved it by simply copying the folder of the old Mac in which I had installed the Standalone to the Mac M2.

I have slightly modified the TeXShop scripts and everything works.

The log tells me:

This is LuaTeX, Version 1.13.0 (TeX Live 2021)

Compiling with LMTX, i read:

ConTeXt ver: 2022.09.11 20:44 LMTX

And compiling with MkIV (of the TeX Live 2022):

This is LuaTeX, Version 1.15.0 (TeX live 2022)

Hello list,

I'm trying to install ConTeXt Standalone on my Mac (macOS 12.6 Monterey and Apple M2 chip) but at the end of the installation the ConTeXt-MkIV folder (where I install Standalone) on the disk weighs only 7MB (the tex tree is created, but its folders are empty).
I've never had a problem installing it on my old computer (Intel processor).

Do you know if it is a known problem?

These are the commands I used (taken from the wiki):

rsync -av rsync: //contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh .
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules = all --fonts = all --goodies = all --context = latest --engine = luatex

Where am I wrong?

LMTX installation, on the other hand, should be successful (the folder weighs 297.8 MB, as much as the Standalone one should weigh).

Thanks in advance.
Tommaso
