| anonymous_farm | I just burned ubuntustudio but can not boot from it on macbook 4.1 | 13:40 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | anonymous_farm: it wont boot like that | 13:40 |
| holstein | its not a live CD | 13:40 |
| holstein | you should be able to boot the installer | 13:40 |
| holstein | personally, ive had bad luck with mac+linux | 13:40 |
| holstein | i would look at the wiki pages from ubuntu on your specific macbook | 13:41 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook4-1/Lucid for example | 13:41 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook4-1/Natty | 13:42 |
| holstein | i would also burn a normal ubuntu live CD, boot that, see how it works on the hard drive, use that to install, and add whatever i want to it from the studio packages | 13:42 |
| anonymous_farm | so can boot to say puppy linux and then run the install ? I will look at the forum | 13:43 |
| anonymous_farm | not forum wiki | 13:43 |
| holstein | anonymous_farm: i cant imagine a scenario where booting puppy linux will help with the install of ubuntustudio | 13:45 |
| holstein | it could be a kernel version issue | 13:46 |
| holstein | who knows | 13:46 |
| holstein | i have several live CD's in my testing kit at all times | 13:46 |
| holstein | the last ubuntu LTS, which is 10.04, the latest stable ubuntu (11.04)... also puppy linux and knoppix | 13:47 |
| anonymous_farm | thank you for the pointers, I will burn the live cd and giv that a try | 13:47 |
| holstein | the ubuntustudio iso is *not* live | 13:47 |
| holstein | you dont have to have the ubuntustudio installer to get ubuntustudio | 13:47 |
| holstein | !vanilla | 13:47 |
| ubottu | To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation | 13:47 |
| holstein | you can just search ubuntustudio in whatever package manager as well after install | 13:47 |
| holstein | OR, just install what you need | 13:47 |
| holstein | for example, the ubuntustudio-audio metapackage pulls in a lot of applications, but you might not ever need/want/use them | 13:48 |
| anonymous_farm | Ok thank you for the help | 13:48 |
| holstein | if you just want audacity, just install audacity, it'll be quicker, and easier | 13:48 |
| holstein | and, you get to use a live CD to install | 13:48 |
| anonymous_farm | I understand I guess I did not see that it is not a live cd | 13:49 |
| anonymous_farm | read the page hmm my wife is laughing at me getting lost with map in my hand | 13:53 |
