AFAIK this happens on al macbooks with core 2 duo. It may be a bios bug, but apple hasn't released any updates so far. I haven't tried grub-efi package since I'm booting from the live cd. My plan is to replace OSX with linux, but until this is solved I can't do it (I consider this bug a mayor problem: imagine a kernel panic on normal boot. With this bug I could not boot into safe mode as I could not select that option from grub). I know I can dual (and triple) boot osx with linux, but I really don't like it and I would rather use the disk space for my music than for that other propietary o.s. thanks. -- CD boot loader doesn't detect macbook's (core 2 duo) keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/79172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
