i will try other ways, but for now this works, and should work on any platform or VMware flavor, not just fusion. I tried several different methods from the Terminal, but i always hit a brick wall. Boot-Repair-Disk serves as a recovery disk with a one-click repair design system. Boot-Repair Disk repairs the GRUB boot loader of Linux and can repair multiple editions of Microsoft Windows operating systems. Use this flash drive to not only install Ubuntu but also to confirm that Ubuntu can run on your Mac. Boot Repair Disk is also included on the USB as a bonus, Boot Repair Disk - is a live CD that repairs multiple Linux distributions.
#Live usb small linux for boot mac for mac#
you may shutdown the VM with "shutdown -h now" (for an unnecessary but by force of habit, clean shutdown), then "enter" when prompted Create a Live Bootable USB Ubuntu Installer for Mac OS. It took me a couple weeks of research, asking questions of our Linux on PowerPC Macs group on Facebook, and experimenting before I could finally boot into Linux 14.04 from a thumb drive. hit "enter" when done and "0" "enter" to exit from the installer. It’s not particularly easy to create a bootable USB flash drive so you can try running Linux on a PowerPC Mac. hit "5" "enter" for USB install, confirm with a "Y" "enter", verify boot options and language, then confirm "Y" "enter" to proceedĥ. The solution I found uses the ISO 2 USB EFI Booter for Mac (with unclear origin) to boot from the ISO image of a LiveCD, but with some small but important changes: use a FAT32 file system, place the EFI file in /efi/boot/ and rename it to boot.efi. pick a place and file name, remove hard disk (although not necessary), start up the VM, patch the USB Drive, send a "ctrl-alt-del" and type "install" "enter"Ĥ. create new Virtual Machine in Fusion and "continue without disc", pick your DSL ISO for installation media, pick Linux -> Debian5 for OS type, then "customize settings"ģ.
using a 128mb fat32 USB set to Master Boot RecordĢ. I wrote this "How-to" out of frustration USING VMWARE FUSION!!!ġ.
