Subject: [gentoo-user] macbook pro boot from usb
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 17:36:22 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMpmEiFHH6cRv1GhOHSonc67hKvPnthLLZWtyWCJLV9SptiShA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I would like to experiment with Gentoo on a Mac but I don't seem to
get past step 0, namely, booting from a gentoo usb stick
(systemrescuecd). The Mac does not recognize the usb stick. I don't
know much about Macs and searching the web has not been fruitful. In
other computers without a Mac bios, it is a matter of changing the
boot device order to the usb port. I don't know if such a thing exists
in a Mac. If you have a gentoo mac I would appreciate inputs.

Thanks,

--
