[13:40] <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
[13:41] <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
[13:42] <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
[13:43] <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
[13:45] <holstein> anonymous_farm: i cant imagine a scenario where booting puppy linux will help with the install of ubuntustudio
[13:46] <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
[13:47] <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] <holstein> you can just search ubuntustudio in whatever package manager as well after install
[13:47] <holstein> OR, just install what you need
[13:48] <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
[13:49] <anonymous_farm> I understand I guess I did not see that it is not a live cd
[13:53] <anonymous_farm> read the page hmm my wife is laughing at me getting lost with map in my hand
