![]() I'm not going to die in a ditch over this - it's just something I fancy having a go at but so far it's looking like the MacBook will be on a one way trip to the local refuse site, small electrical items skip! - once I've removed the hard drive but with no description as to what either does it make no matter because pressing 1 or 2 results in nothing happening! I've tried creating a bootable DVD containing the iso image using a MacBook Pro and after some delay that presents me with a strange menu with two items 1. I have tried making a bootable USB using both Etcher (Mac) and Rufus (PC) and neither will boot, in fact the USB boot drive created by Etcher results in a drive that is not readable at all - on any machine! I've tried using an external powered USB hub just in case the onboard USB sockets are not initialised properly/fully at boot up but that didn't work either. My old MacBook is pretty much useless for anything else as it cannot be upgraded/updated to run the more recent OS or Apps so I thought this would be a good use for it rather than consigning it to the scrap bin. Has anyone had any success getting Ubuntu (Astronomy) to run on a MacBook 2006 running a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo with 1GB of DDR2 SDRAM? - it's one of those nice, solidly made white ones Apple use to make. ![]()
