ni291187IDK if this is the place to mention it, but someone might want to change the ubuntu mate raspberry pi install page that says ubuntu mate only requires an 8gb microSD card - the extracted image is 8.1 gigs...00:04
ni291187ubuntu core seems to only be 617MB, how is it even possible that the mate image is more than 8GB?00:14
ni291187did i do something wrong?00:14
Astro7467The SD image is a whole of card (partitions etc) image - it isn't actually 8GB of data - just 8GB of 'space'00:16
ni291187but it wont fit on my 8GB card...00:17
Astro7467the size problem is caused by different SD cards - 8GB SD from different brands are all slightly different00:17
Astro7467so the 8GB SD it was created on was bigger than urs - there is a fix00:18
ni291187i mean the extracted file actually says 8.1GB in the properties, I cannot imagine that will fit on many 8GB cards.00:18
Astro7467if u dd the image to the SD the part at the end is just empty space - there is a entry in the Ubuntu  MATE community forums how to repair and resize the partition once it is on the SD to fix the issue00:19
Astro7467but the loger term solution is for the image to be provided @<*GB so it doesn't cause the issue00:19
Astro7467* @<8GB00:20
ni291187okay, that would be good, I'll go look for that entry before I switch to core - is there going to be any major limitation to resizing? I am really only planning to use this pi as a sort of hardware wallet00:22
Astro7467no - the resizing is to fix the issue of the card size vs image size - of cause if you have a 16GB SD you won't see an issue00:24
ni291187oh, so no way to shrink it?00:25
ni291187nevermind, i get what you are saying00:26

MetalindustrienHi, does anybody here have any experience with installing on a MacBook Pro? I've made a USB install flash drive with Ubuntu-MATE on it, I've tested it on a Windows machine and it can boot it fine. On the MBP I get to the bootloader where I can choose to either Try Ubuntu-MATE or install it, but no matter what I choose I just get a black screen afterwards17:48
MetalindustrienIt bugs the everloving sh*t out of me that I don't even get an error message17:50
MetalindustrienJust blackness17:50
MetalindustrienI thought it was the USB being bad, but it works fine on my other machine17:51
MetalindustrienSo much for trying to switch to Linux :/17:54
alkisgMetalindustrien: at that point, you can press f6 and enter some kernel options, like "nomodeset" or so18:25
alkisgI don't know which one will be needed for the mbp, but you could google and find others with the same issue18:26
Metalindustrienalkisg At which point? The black screen?18:26
alkisgNo, before that18:26
MetalindustrienThe GRUB screen?18:26
alkisghttp://askubuntu.com/questions/152847/how-to-access-boot-options-12-04-live-usb18:26
alkisg...just the first google hit there, it shows the options18:26
alkisgIf you boot with uefi and see grub instead, then you press "e" instead of f618:27
alkisgHere's one hit for mbp black screen: http://askubuntu.com/questions/134342/which-iso-image-do-i-need-to-install-ubuntu-12-04-on-a-macbook-pro-so-that-it-bo18:28
Metalindustrienalkisg That last one seems to have done the trick! It boots into MATE now! Amazing!18:33
MetalindustrienNow to install and start using it... :D18:35
alkisgMetalindustrien: cool! have fun!18:35
MetalindustrienThanks!18:36
