I took an older Imac as part of a trade and I'd like to install Linux on it. It is a Core 2 Duo
and it is in good condition. I tried Linux Mint (my favorite) and 2 types of Puppy Linux
both both failed part way through the install. I tried both USB and DVD to install them.
The USB is recognized if I boot up the Mac OSX , but it is not found if I try to install
from it. The USB is OK , I tried the stick in a Windows machine and it boots to Mint OK.
Has anyone had success installing Linux on an Imac ?
TIA
