IF YOU UPDATE THE KERNEL, REMEMBER TO ADD THE REQUIRED DRIVERS AGAIN. All available modifications could be found here:
#UBUNTU FOR MAC PRO INSTALL#
To install additional languages, install appropriate langpack via apt sudo apt-get install language-pack- language-pack-gnome- language-pack-base language-pack-gnome-base.Run the installer (In my case it had some problem removing some packages at the end, but this is no real problem) Select the /boot partition as a target for GRUB installation, otherwise the system won't boot.Add a ext4 partition and monted as / (rest).Add a ext4 partition and mounted as /boot (1024MB).Your Mac will keep on working without problems. Leave the efi boot as preselected by the installer.Select the options that work for you and use for the partition the following setup: Use Ubiquity to install (just click on it) Select "EFI Boot" (the third option was the one that worked for me) Restart and immediately press the option key until the Logo come up
#UBUNTU FOR MAC PRO ISO#
Please don't use livecd-iso-to-disk as it's overwriting ISO default grub settings and Ubuntu will not boot correctly!īoot in Recovery mode and allow booting unknown OS

How to install (Based on mikeeq/mbp-fedora)

This repo is a rework of the great work done by using the Kernel from.

If this repo helped you in any way, consider inviting a coffee to the people in the credits or me. The ISO in from this repo should allow you to install ubuntu without using an external keyboard or mouse on a MacBook Pro.

I do not recall if Ubuntu autodetects the 32bit efi boot, and installs grub-ia32, or if you need to install it via apt manually.UBUNTU 20.04 ISO with Apple T2 patches built-in. Let me know if it works, I’m only recalling this from memory. Copy BOOTIA32.efi to EFI/BOOT (where youll also see BOOTX64) and grubia32.efi to EFI/ubuntu Once restored, open the EFI partition (mount partition 1 via gnome disks or /sbin/mount) and go to EFI/BOOT. iso is specifically prepared to allow EFI boot. Do not use rufus or the like! Those alter the partition layout. Unfortunately, the MacPro<3,1 generation only has a 32bit efi unlike mine, so what you’ll need to do is as follows: But on principle, EFI 1.1 will boot UEFI binaries just fine. To be fair, I (somewhat?) cheated, I netboot iPXE.efi and have that load vmlinuz and initrd off the network, and nfsroot. I have Ubuntu 20.04 running on an Xserve2,1 (=MacPro3,1) with native EFI boot.
