Dual-booting Fedora 9 and Xubuntu 8.04 on Macbook Pro
Now that I have tried and tested F-9 on my 4th gen. Macbook Pro (Penryn), it's time for me to give you a concise summary of the Sulphur experience and how it compares to that of Hardy Heron.
Linux distros and Apple hardware are not meant for each other. Running Linux on a Mac will almost always give you headaches, as wireless card, audio, and keyboard among others will usually not function as normal. I have personally encountered this while using Ubuntu/Xubuntu on Macbook Pro. Because Fedora 9 is more recent than Ubuntu 8.04, I was hoping against all hope that I would get better hardware support for my MBP. So, I dived into dual booting Xubuntu and Fedora on my Mac.
Since I've already installed Xubuntu, setting up Fedora for dual boot was pretty straightforward. It was my first time installing Fedora via Live CD, and I must say that it was a breeze compared to the old and standard installation method that utilizes Anaconda.
