This worked! :-) Got Linux Mint on my old Macbook now! :-) Thank you for the clear guidance about the partitions. That was very helpful. Now next thing I will try is to dual boot fedora on my actual Macbook (2019). There is a github project which already includes all the drivers for the T2 chip. You do great videos, thanks again!
Please see if you're using 22.04 and make sure PulseAudio is working correctly, if it is not, fix it for 22.04: sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio&& sudo apt-get install pulseaudio && If you using 22.10 make sure that any package is not broken and pipewire is installed because in 22.10 it is using pipewire audio service instead of using pulseaudio service. Thank You for giving advice for using auto-cpufreq also.
Being a nerd can be lonely, even if you know many other nerds. There are nerds of myriad types and their interests may not overlap. So I came here to share with no one, anyone how fascinated I was to clone my dual boot windows and Linux to an external drive and then boot both of them on my 2009 mac that has Monterey installed thanks to. Some very clever unpaid programmers. If you do this, two tips. Learn how to reinstall Grub in a way that Mac recognizes and back it up in case it gets messed up. Also, never let Windows start a repair. It will certainly wipe out Grub and might even mess up your partition table. Sorry for the typos. My phone won't let me edit. It keps jumping around.
Great video, liked and subbed. Would you know if this would work on a mac that has already been partitioned to run windows via bootcamp? As in, now there would be 3x operating systems.
Thanks for the info. Great job. I was able to load Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on my Mac Mini (late 2014). There were just minor differences in your video vs. the installer, but nothing significant. FWIW, I had to install with a USB keyboard and mouse until I got to the point where I could enable Bluetooth and pair the wireless Mac keyboard and mouse. Thanks again!
Excellent video! I have a mid-2012 MacBook Pro and always wanted to figure this out. I have tried it before, but it would not work properly. I did not configure the drive correctly to enable Linux to work. Your directions are very helpful!

Hello! I have an issue were when I get to the stage of making the EFI partition and the main large partition, when I go to select the EFI drive as the install location it doesn't even appear, only the large partition created does.
no, when installing linux and making the efi partition and the main partition, when you go to select efi as the install location it isn't in the drop down menu, its alright though because I already figured it out.@@kskroyaltech
@@kskroyaltech I have the same issue, I think he means when you restert the macbook and expect to be able to select the USB stick as a bootable device... it doesn't show up on my 2019 early macbook pro
Ditto - Mac Mini, 1tb "fusion" drive. EFI partition created, swap partition created, and ext4 root partition created. On the drop down menu to select the boot install partition, the EFI partition is not listed, only the ext4 root partition. Nonetheless, it seems to work. Default boot is Linux, but if you hold down the option key while booting, you can select Mac OS.

Hello brother, thanks for the nice video, I have a question, once Ubuntu is successfully installed, It becomes the default Operating system. how can I configure that so that I get prompted with both two options to choose one, either ubuntu or Mac os?
im taking a Operating Systems class and they told us to install ubuntu on a virtual machine but meh i dont like vm i was like i rather dual boot it so i can get the full performance, so yeah thank you for the tutarial i think that might be the best tutorial on this on youtube
I did the procedure 5 times, just like in the video, but it doesn’t work!! When I click install from a bootable USB flash drive - an error (mac mini 2018) - "you need to reinstall the MacOS on the selected disk" What to do?
Can u tell me one thing, could you turn off the Mac and remove USB flash drive. Then turn on your Mac, and let me know if it boots properly to macOS. If not macOS has corrupted.
10:23 I have a question what if you wanted to add another distro after you did this one would you have to do the exact same thing with the other distro.
I installed zorin os and everything is working fine my only issue is that when i hold option key during startup i can only see macos no linux how can i solve?
How did your keyboard work out of the gate? Mine I had to fully install and am now installing the fixes. Note, I did install the current LTS version while I saw you installing the most recent version.
Hi, I'm using a touchbar based 2017 15" macbook pro. Is there a way to get linux working perfectly? Seemingly, the wifi support on T1 based touchbar models is a little different from non-touchbar variants.
Hey :) Is it possible to encryp the partion used for ubuntu at the installation? So instead of choosing ext 4 I would choose physicsl volume for encryption. Do you think it might work or do I habe to add some other things as well? Thanks so much in advance!
Do encrypt any linux partitions especially on Mac hardware.. I cannot say exact reasons. Just don't. BUt... You can use chmod or chown to lock the home folder after installation.
@@kskroyaltechI think it may need more kernel modules that aren't added during installation or custom modules or specific apt installations cause parallels gets it work but it's also not perfect

Hi just done installing linux mint but theres a pop up saying efi low on storage. The thing is its using the mac os efi which is 300 mb And not the 1gb i partitioned how can i solve this? Thanks
when i started mint or ubuntu on my i3 macbook from 2020 i am able to boot into the live cd mode but my trackpad and keyboard are not working. did you connect external usb keyboard and mouse?
yep on some MacBooks with T2 Chips while booting linux distros keypad and trackpad wont work. In my case it worked. If not, you can use external USB keyboard or mouse.
@@kskroyaltech Ok, I mean initially there were rumours that even when you disable Secure Boot, Linux won’t be able to detect internal SSD because of the T2 chip, and there were also some problems with keyboard and trackpad, and Wi-Fi. So, I guess, such major issues are fixed? Also could you mention (if you have any info on that) how good is battery life on these Macs on GNU/Linux?
I guess you have made a mistake. macOS partitions are distribute. Do one thing. Force Off the MacBook. Then after it turned off. Hold option and power Key until you see apple logo. It will take you the boot menu, choose Macintosh HD. If it boots normally then no problem otherwise you need to reinstall macOS by following the on screen instructions.
Models with Apple's NVMe controller (MacBookPro13,1, MacBookPro13,2, MacBookPro14,1 and MacBookPro14,2) require disabling the d3cold PCIe power state for the NVMe controller to successfully wake up again: echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:00.0/d3cold_allowed. This command must be executed from root, and ideally on startup, since the file is rewritten to '1' on startup. Even then resume is incredible slow and takes up to a minute, probably due to additional bugs. For the 15" models with additional AMD GPU resume only works when using the internal Intel GPU.

Linux Mint is Buggy on MACS, try Fedora or Ubuntu. Note since you are using, 2019 MacBook you may end up facing an issues in regards to keyboard and touch pad.. It may not work during the installation, use USB mouse & keyboard. Then google or search on GitHub for touchpad and keyboard drivers and install it.
@@kskroyaltech yeah you are right! I was able to remove the security and was able to run fedora and mint but like you said my touchpad and keyboard stopped working!
Would you mind If I tell You to check GitHub repos , I cannot tell specific driver to install. It depends on the model. For your reference see this repo: github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux#keyboard--touchpad

@@kskroyaltech Thank u. I only have access to a USB be with 32gb storage capacity at the moment. Of note, I only have about 30GB available to partition on my Mac. Do you think it would still make sense to try to do this? Or would the limited free storage across the two operating systems make my computer exceedingly slow?
i did this because my mac was software bricked by the previous owner. i would like to remove ubuntu and get some sort of macos back onto my imac. is that possible?
I was able to connect with wired mouse and keyboard for installation, but what to do after it? I mean I’m not able to connect to wifi as well, I think drivers are missing

Any ideas on how can install the wifi drive without an Ethernet connection? thanks in advance.
Does not work for Macbook Air Retina 2020 Intel Because of the T2 chip, no linux kernel I tried supports it, latest I tried is Ubuntu 24 LTS. There's a slim chance something like Debian Unstable build (aka beta) might work. Or so I heard on a reddit thread when trying to get any drivers at all to work. Thanks for the video though :D
For some reason when I boot I cannot seem to move my mouse or keyboard doesn't function, I am using MacBook Air (intel). I get to screen where it says welcome and to install ubuntu but then I can't move my mouse. Any suggestion
Use mouse and Keyboard to install ubuntu. After the installation your keyboard and mouse will work. Make sure while installing Ubuntu you need to tick the two options that says download updates while installing (REQUIRES INTERNET) and install drivers.

This command must be executed from root, and ideally on startup, since the file is rewritten to '1' on startup. Even then resume is incredible slow and takes up to a minute, probably due to additional bugs.
For the 15" models with additional AMD GPU resume only works when using the internal Intel GPU.
do you need to create a swap partition as well?
Its optional.

great guide by the way im trying to follow this guide for the parrotOS installation but I couldn't get passed the partition section.
im looking to find a way to manually partition ParrotOS the same way but in the partition menu, it doesn't allow me to create a EFI partition there are different names for them.
could anyone help me pass this?
It's better on Mac to try Kali Linux.
@@kskroyaltech but I like the ParrotOS tools More 🥹
Have you had a chance to fix issue with suffering from Sleep/Wake?
I tried but no proper drivers yet.
Help me please! I installed Ubuntu on my 2009 Mac and it shows 4 windows at once on the monitor and the same thing is mirrored everywhere. How to make one desktop, and not 4 at the same time?
Hello Ksk Royal.
Thank you for this video very helpfull.
It worsks on a MacBook7,2 and Ubuntu-22.04.
BUT
What is the purpose of the new parition EFI?
Today i tried to add another LinuxOS on my MacBook7,2 and I checked my EFI linux...
BUT
There is nothing on it...
All datas to grub boot are on EFI for mac...
there there is 3 folders:
/boot/efi/EFI/APPLE
/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT
/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grub.conf is very tiny and I didnt found the way to disable grub restriction for probe.os
Thank you for your explanations...
I was installing linux mint using a different tutorial and I partitioned the mac HDD as APFS and now Linux cant show APFS volume in boot options, Now I can't boot back into macos. Have any solution for that?
When partitioning you partitioned the drive as MsDos(fat) that's getting identified and showed in boot options in linux , great.
But I can i make linux show APFS volume ?
Is it a must to have a bootable drive during the installation?
Yes without the usage of bootable drive you cannot install ubuntu on bare metal hardware.
@@kskroyaltech thanks
is there any way to remove the partition? I'm trying to dual boot windows and MacOS but I want some space freed up
see this video: ruclips.net/video/74I_8Oy4PHM/видео.html
Will you make the one with external ssd?
Testing bro, currently Rufus is having an issues.
in ubuntu partition you need to change mount to /
My MacBook Pro 2019 intel refused to run Linux mint successfully! Any ideals?
Linux Mint is Buggy on MACS, try Fedora or Ubuntu.
Note since you are using, 2019 MacBook you may end up facing an issues in regards to keyboard and touch pad.. It may not work during the installation, use USB mouse & keyboard.
Then google or search on GitHub for touchpad and keyboard drivers and install it.
@@kskroyaltech yeah you are right! I was able to remove the security and was able to run fedora and mint but like you said my touchpad and keyboard stopped working!
Hey man! I was able to bott Ubuntu all thanks to you. But my trackpad and keyboard aren't doing anything. Any ideas on how to deal with that?
Would you mind If I tell You to check GitHub repos , I cannot tell specific driver to install. It depends on the model. For your reference see this repo: github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux#keyboard--touchpad
Awesome thank you very much @kskroyaltech
i did the same but now i cannot see ubuntu on the GRUB, (where you hold the option key during reboot). I've installed everything as instructed in the video. Could somebody pls help
Neither can I. It’s installed but I can only access Mac lol
The same
Did anyone figure out the solution? only macos shows up but on diskutil I can see the Linux partitions
i see no EFI partition option when installing on my old macbbok pro... what should i do ?
Watch this updated video on this topic: ruclips.net/video/qjfBP4UYx9c/видео.html
I lost wifi connection during the partition, and it says partition failed something like that, what should I do ??
force restart the Mac ,and try again.
Confused by the USB part. Do I need an actual usb drive to store the Linux program on? Very new to this...
Pen Drive is the preferred One. It's like loading linux installer into Pen drive and transferring it to the internal drive on the computer.
@@kskroyaltech Thank u. I only have access to a USB be with 32gb storage capacity at the moment. Of note, I only have about 30GB available to partition on my Mac. Do you think it would still make sense to try to do this? Or would the limited free storage across the two operating systems make my computer exceedingly slow?
Mac doesn't care about how many operating systems you run.
yep 30GB is fine no props.
@@kskroyaltech I now have 57 GB free. So, wish we luck as I try to do this...
i did this because my mac was software bricked by the previous owner. i would like to remove ubuntu and get some sort of macos back onto my imac. is that possible?
How do I make a bootable drive for Macbook Air? Are there USB-C Flash Drives?
Plugin Your USB penDrive to USB 2 port and use etcher to make a bootable Drive.
Does this work for macos open core legacy patcher ? Or otherwise hackintosh
My mouse and keyboard are not recognised when I'm at 6:30 neither my wifi is detected
Did u try connecting wired or wireless USB mouse / keyboard ?!
I was able to connect with wired mouse and keyboard for installation, but what to do after it? I mean I’m not able to connect to wifi as well, I think drivers are missing
i have a broken display and using monitors i cant see anything when installing is there workaround? or is there a way to make my mac think the built in display does not exist anymore?
Did u try connecting your Mac to monitor ?
Plug in a keyboard and mouse and plug it to power and monitor and close the lid
@@gachigabe5895 I do that but it only works in macos and bootcamp does not show even when lid closed or when booting from anything else but macos or The firmware recovery I’m using a dell dock
@@gachigabe5895 yeah monitors don’t show it’s “No DP input” unless it’s reconvert firmware or the os I just really want ubuntuw and boot camp
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello, Thanks for your video. But i get my trackpad and keyboard unresponsive after Ubuntu loading! I can not complete the Ubuntu setup. Any fix for this problem? mac 15" 2018. Ubuntu20.04
I understand the problem, Mac with T2 ship has some issues. Do one thing, if you have bluetooth keyboard / mouse connect it to Mac to see if that helps. If it works install ubuntu .
Then try this driver - github.com/roadrunner2/macbook12-spi-driver
@@kskroyaltechFirst, would like to thank you Soooooo much for this video, I have been trying to install ubuntu on my intel mac for about 10 days and have watched a lot of videos but all gave a GRub error., I have managed to connect the external keyboard and mouse and all worked just fine EXCEPT the most important thing. WIFI :( I looked around a lot and could not find a fix. MY mac Is a Macbookpro 2018 A1990 and I have checked oireg -l | grep requested files and i think I have Broadcom c-4364. Any ideas on how can install the wifi drive without an Ethernet connection? thanks in advance.
Does not work for Macbook Air Retina 2020 Intel
Because of the T2 chip, no linux kernel I tried supports it, latest I tried is Ubuntu 24 LTS. There's a slim chance something like Debian Unstable build (aka beta) might work. Or so I heard on a reddit thread when trying to get any drivers at all to work.
Thanks for the video though :D
T2 Chip is scary.
After i select start up security utility the only option i get is to turn on firmware passowrd how do i reach the strtup security screen?
NO need to worry just follow the tutorial straight up .
Thanks a lot for this video 🎉
After successful installation, my touchpad ,keyboard, speaker ,Bluetooth and Wi-Fi cannot be used. Do you know what the problem is? Can you help me?😢
For some reason when I boot I cannot seem to move my mouse or keyboard doesn't function, I am using MacBook Air (intel). I get to screen where it says welcome and to install ubuntu but then I can't move my mouse. Any suggestion
Use mouse and Keyboard to install ubuntu. After the installation your keyboard and mouse will work.
Make sure while installing Ubuntu you need to tick the two options that says download updates while installing (REQUIRES INTERNET) and install drivers.
@@kskroyaltech will it always boot ubuntu first? is there a way to priotize mac os ?
Which Linux is the best for a MacBook Pro M1 ?
Asahi is your only option really
