Hello there, I just have a question. I hope perhaps @nazunalika or someone else in this forum can help me with this:
I managed to run the Linux Rocky 9 installer on my Mac Pro 2009 and write the system on its boot drive, to use Linux as my only operating system on that machine.
The problem is that after completing the installation and pressing the “reboot” button, my computer fails to boot altogether. Previously I’ve installed Linux Mint and then, after formatting the drive, I installed Fedora. Both systems booted and seemed to work well. My objective is to run DaVinci Resolve and that didn’t run well on Mint or on Fedora, so I’ve insisted with the Rocky 8 and Rocky 9 installers, but I with both versions I find the same dead end: the computer fails to boot after installing the Rocky OS.
I’ve found a reference to a “–nomacboot” flag in the Rocky installer and I’m wondering if that’s the cause for this problem. I also wonder if there’s a solution to: 1) either modify some lines in the installer code and re-install or 2) use a USB Linux installer demo OS and use terminal to access my boot hard drive and add or modify the boot code (GRUB) so that my Mac Pro can boot the Rocky 9 system, including GUI.
Thanks in advance
