But again, I try uninstall and reinstall VB from my MBP 4 times, and its stay something about missing kernel. Maybe because of the USB connector?Īnd VIrtual Machine, I try VMWare on PC before and from the other method (bare metal & live session) Virtual Machine is more recommended for me. I read everywhere you would be find a hard time to install something from boot menu with USB on MBP 2018Ībout the live session, that really cool actually. The other problem also make the USB getting notice by the system. Correct me if I'm wrong, you need "burn" the ISO of linux on USB (dont know right tools for this but see Anthony said something about Rufus), set it to the first boot device, and install it. About partitioning, I done quite much actually on PC but never on Mac stuff. My MBP actually from 2018, the one with the touchbar, with 4 thunderbolt 3 port only.Īnd, like you say. So, this is my fault that I share the wrong type of MBP to you.
Wow Willa, thank you very much for answering. The partitioning was.involved and difficult until I learned more about how APFS containers work and how to use them. I currently dualboot macOS Big Sur and Ubuntu 20.04 on a MacBook Air, so dual booting modern macOS with a Linux distro is certainly possible. I've booted Ubuntu and Fedora via live mode usb on my MacBook Pro 2017 to mess around with them and see what was broken + what worked. Follow the documentation herein to get started: Otherwise, try to install Ubuntu or another distro using VirtualBox. If you want to play around with Linux and familiarize yourself with it some without committing to a full install, you can install Ubuntu to a flash drive and boot to it without installing (this is called a live session / live mode, or something like that). Before doing any partitioning or OS installing, make sure you backup your files to another computer or external hard drive, otherwise you run the risk of losing all your files. Are you familiar with partitioning a computer yourself or have others done it for you / an installer handled it for you? If you aren't familiar, I recommend finding a Linux User Group in your city and seeing if anyone can help you in person. There's good info here regarding Linux install status on some models and links to other tutorials / overviews therein for other models.īootcamp won't assist you with installing Linux, you'll have to do the partitioning manually. What specific model do you have? Find the one here on everymac and post that link here, unfortunately there are differences in ease of install / working state for certain things depending on which exact model 2017 MBP a person has.
