Question is title.
In the past I’ve installed many distros on many older PCs, but never used linux properly (although slowly moving over to avoid win11). I’ve also had a heap of history with windows installs.
A family member has been testing Mint on an old laptop and is going well. This is a trial run before I update their iMac laptop (not sure what one but no longer supposed by OS updates).
I’ve never booted to an iMac BIOS or installed over top of apple.
- Is this going to be like installing over windows?
- What issues can I expect?
- Should I consider another distro?
Asking here as searching results in AI bullshit websites.
Yeah… to my knowledge it’s the same as a “normal” UEFI system, but instead of pressing
escorf12you hold thealtoroptionkey on startup. Then select your USB, and boot. I’d strongly advise you test everything before installing.deleted by creator
