[SOLVED] Installing on a 2008 ish Macbook Pro

#1 Post by Griffy »

I have 2 old 2008ish Macbook pros. I took the old mechanical hd out of one and stuck in a samsung SSD. I'm not that familiar with Macs, but I have gotten it to recognize and boot from DVD. I've been successful at booting and installing MX 23 up until the point where it is supposed to create a user. It won't create one and it fails. Antix seemed to work fine so that is what is installed now. It doesn't shut down without intervention in the form of the power button. I don't have to hold it, I just hit it and it continues with the shutdown process. I'd like it to shutdown normally. I have several questions.

1. What EFI partition if any should be installed on the SSD so that I can boot from USB if that's an option for me. I think MAC uses it's own and it seems that it might need that to select a booting option (can only boot from DVD if I hold the option key) other than DVD's.

2. Why did the MX installer fail during user creation right at the end? DVD integrity seems to be fine but I would prefer booting from a USB image so I could use MX or any other distro (I want to put Pop on the other Mac)

3. What will smooth out the shutdown process for me with Antix or any other distro. Does this have anything to do with Macs proprietary EFI?

Can someone make sense of all this> ;)

EFI is incompatible with that vintage of MacBook Pro. See here:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ef ... hould%20be.

you will likely have to do a legacy (MBR) install.
HP 15; ryzen 3 5300U APU; 500 Gb SSD; 8GB ram
HP 17; ryzen 3 3200; 500 GB SSD; 12 GB ram
Idea Center 3; 12 gen i5; 256 GB ssd;

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

Thank you for the prompt response. Are there any guides or tips for doing a legacy MBR install with MX? I had secretly hoped that someone had done it before.

I have close to zero expiriences with 2008 Mac's ...
but anyway, maybe you try a little experiment to check whether you can boot from USB this way
with help of a generated small ISO. If that would boot from an plugged-in USB key,
we can transform MX-ISO in a same way to a bootable USB-key
We need an USB stick and we prepare a grubtest.iso which is about 10++ MB in size
On a 64bit MX-23 installation (or maybe on a 32bit not sure.)
Open terminal as normal user and run

Code: Select all

grub-mkrescue -o grubtest.iso /dev/null
Now plugin the test USB-stick, this will be overwritten and remove any other USB-stick

Code: Select all

sudo dd-live-usb -f grubtest.iso
It will detect the USB key and ask for confirmation
Now use the LiveGRUBtest USB to boot from the MAC.
You may need to hold one of those options key, to select the USB to boot from.
Does it find the LiveGRUB- usb key and does it boot to the GRUB> prompt?
If yes, do enter this

Code: Select all

echo $grub_cpu
and

Code: Select all

echo $grub_platform
and let us know what it shows or any other error message.

It gives me no options at all. I have to hold the option key when I boot and it just goes to white screen. It's either boot from the blank hard drive (it won't) or the DVD will start spinning and might boot from that. The only OSes I have been able to boot this way are antix and MX, but MX fails when creating the user towards the end of the install. As I'm typing this MX has actually completed the install so I'll check out how it starts and shuts down.

Our installer is designed to use the partition scheme that is dictated by the machine's bios. All you need to do is access the bios and set it to use MBR or Legacy or non CMS or whatever Apple calls it.

This is as far as I can take you since my knowledge of Apple products is limited to the fact that I know what they look like.

May be post the minstaller.log available on the LiveBooted system, e.g within quick-system-info-gui.
Also did you upgrade the mx-installer to latest version before installing.

It is the latest 23 AFAIK. I now have MX installed and rebooting nicely. I am currently trying to activate the wireless because it is enabled but I can't use it.

Here is the .log

It's either boot from the blank hard drive (it won't) or the DVD will start spinning and might boot from that. The only OSes I have been able to boot this way are antix and MX, but MX fails when creating the user towards the end of the install. As I'm typing this MX has actually completed the install so I'll check out how it starts and shuts down.
Yes, you can. E.g. this way create normal Live USB with MX LiveUSB Maker in default MBR (not GPT) mode.
*Open Gparted and remove the 2nd ESP partition on the LiveUSB
Thats proably it The system wont see a valid ESP and wont be able to boot in UEFI mode.
And with some luck the Mac fallsback the MBR/bios booting.
* Maybe not needed, but also remove the EFI folder on the first ext4 partition.

Thanks!
It is running and restarting fine now. I will try to make a bootable USB with your advice. Now I have to figure out how to get the wireless working.
