When booting the operating system will not recognize the presence of the LiveCD, and you will end up with a console of initram.
I followed one tip found on Internet. * Create an USB with the image of Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 following the instructions on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download * Then burn a CD with the same image. * Plug the USB and insert the CD. * With rEFIt boot from the CD. * When booting, the CD will be "lost" but it will continue with the USB image. Now, I have Ubuntu 11.10 on my macbook pro 8,1. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/633983 Title: Can't boot amd64 live cd on Mac (EFI) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/633983/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
