Benjamin Peterson, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please make a comment to this. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001091 Title: "EFI Boot" from livecd fails on Macbook Pro Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I performed the following actions on my Macbook pro: 1. Started it with the alt-option key down to bring up the boot menu. 2. Inserted the Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop CD. 3. Selected the "EFI Boot" drive and it enter. 4. GRUB was loaded, and I hit enter to select "Try Ubuntu w/o installing it". At this point the screen goes black and it seems the machine must be shut off with the power button. --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
