Which means the /home partition will be the remainder of the drive less the swap. If you have 4GB of RAM, make it 6 or 8GB. It's not that big of a hit to the drive space. Swap partition - 1.5 or 2 times your RAM (your call). Home (/home) partition - EXT4 - Remainder of drive less swap. My recommendation is to partition the free hard drive space like this: You have the requisite EFI partition and you can boot into the Mac Recovery partition if you ever need to. Blow away the Mac system partition but leave the EFI and Recovery partitions. My EFI and Recovery partitions don't even take up 1GB on a 320GB hard drive.Īfter that is done, boot to the Mint LiveUSB and choose the Something Else option when you install.
It will also create a GPT partition table and not an MSDOS MBR partition table. The macOS installer will create the required EFI partition, a system & file partition, and a recovery partition. I know this sounds weird but trust me, you WANT to do this. Use the macOS DVD that came with the computer and fully install whatever OS version it is. Here is the recommendation I make to everyone installing Mint on any Intel-based Mac. You can replace the wired with a wireless after the build. With a wireless keyboard you have be exact with when you press the Alt key. You can then choose the USB drive to boot. Make sure you have a wired keyboard when you boot to the LiveUSB because you have to hold down the Alt key (I use a normal keyboard, not a Mac keyboard) to get to the boot loader. Not uninstall windows and reinstall it but if thats the only way then i guess i have too.My everyday driver is an iMac 9.1 with Mint 18.2 Cinnamon. The sound works perfectly on the mac os side of things so i know its a software problem rather than a hardware problem.
i have attempted reinstalling the drivers, nothing. I did some digging and some people are saying that i need to download windows 8 through legacy bios and not efi boot? It took me a while to figure out how to do it normally and I know for a fact i probably wouldn't be able to figure out Everything worked in the end and once it was installed I manually went into my files and begin the driver setup. windows 10 is not officially supported on bootcamp so i decided on 8.1 instead.
