Bootloader is configure correctly out of the box. No workaround needed.
## Which kernel to choose
I've pre installed several different kernel, to allow better support to different hardware.
If your macbook came with Big Sur preinstalled, you should use a bigsur version of kernel.
If your macbook came with mojave, you should use a mojave version of the kernel.
This will allow you to activate wifi in your macbook. See [this page for more information about wifi drivers](https://wiki.t2linux.org/guides/wifi/)
I've recommend starting with the HWE Kernel. That one comes from Ubuntu own repository and I have had great performance with it.
## Installation
## How to install (Based on mikeeq/mbp-fedora)
1. Reduce the size of the mac partition in MacOS
2. Download ISO file from releases. (Use the command line to unzip (`unzip /path/to/file.zip`) or "The Unarchiver" app)
3. Copy it to a USB using dd (or gdd if installed over brew):
```bash
diskutil list # found which number has the USB
diskutil umountDisk /dev/diskX
sudo dd bs=4096 if=ubuntu-20.04-5.6.10-mbp.iso of=/dev/diskX
```
4. Boot in Recovery mode and allow booting unknown OS
5. Restart and immediately press the option key until the Logo come up
6. Select "EFI Boot" (the third option was the one that worked for me)
7. Launch Ubuntu Live
8. Use Ubiquity to install (just click on it)
9. Select the options that work for you and use for the partition the following setup:
* Leave the efi boot as preselected by the installer. Your Mac will keep on working with out problems.
* Add a ext4 partition and mounted as `/boot` (1024MB).
* Add a ext4 partition and monted as `/` (rest).
* Select the `/boot` partition as a target for GRUB installation, otherwise the system won't boot.
10. Run the installer (In my case it had some problem removing some packages at the end, but this is no real problem)
11. Shutdown and remove the USB Drive
12. Start again using the option key. Select the new efi boot.
13. Enjoy.
* HowTo: [Steps to Resize Mac Partition](https://www.anyrecover.com/hard-drive-recovery-data/resize-partition-mac/)
2. Turn off secure boot and allow booting from external media - <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208330>
3. Download .iso from releases section - <https://github.com/marcosfad/mbp-ubuntu/releases/latest>
If it's split into multiple zip parts, i.e.: livecd.zip and livecd.z01 you need to download all zip parts and then
* join split files into one and then extract it via unzip
* <https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/40480/how-to-unzip-a-multipart-spanned-zip-on-linux>
* or extract downloaded zip parts directly using:
* on Windows winrar or other supported tool like 7zip
* on Linux you can use p7zip, dnf install p7zip and then to extract 7za x livecd.zip
* on MacOS you can use
* the unarchiver from AppStore: <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-unarchiver/id425424353?mt=12>
* or you can install p7zip via brew brew install p7zip and use 7za x livecd.zip command mentioned above
* to install brew follow this tutorial: <https://brew.sh/>
4. Next you can check the SHA256 checksum of extracted .ISO to verify if your extraction process went well
MacOS: `shasum -a 256 ubuntu-20.04.iso`
Linux `sha256sum ubuntu-20.04.iso`
please compare it with a value in sha256 file available in github releases
5. Burn the image on USB stick >=8GB via:
* `dd`
* Linux `sudo dd bs=4M if=/home/user/Downloads/ubuntu-20.04.iso of=/dev/sdc conv=fdatasync status=progress`
* MacOS
```bash
diskutil list # found which number has the USB
sudo diskutil umountDisk /dev/diskX
sudo dd bs=4096 if=ubuntu-20.04-XXX.iso of=/dev/diskX
```
* if `dd` is not working for you for some reason you can try to install `gdd` via `brew` and use GNU `dd` command instead `sudo gdd bs=4M if=ubuntu-20.04-XXX.iso of=/dev/diskX conv=fdatasync status=progress`
* Rufus (GPT)- <https://rufus.ie/>, if prompted use DD mode
* Please don't use livecd-iso-to-disk as it's overwriting ISO default grub settings and Ubuntu will not boot correctly!

### The easy way:
The live cd includes dkms and will automatically run when a new kernel is installed. You can use `dkms status` to see it.
If you are upgrading from 5.7.19 to a newer kernel version (5.10+), you will need updated versions of these kernel modules. Instructions for installing updated ones are [here](https://wiki.t2linux.org/guides/dkms/).
The live cd includes a script to download the latest T2-Ubuntu-Kernel. Just run `update_kernel_mbp`.
### Another way:
Check <https://github.com/marcosfad/mbp-ubuntu/blob/master/files/chroot_build.sh> to see how it is done.
Or read <https://wiki.t2linux.org/guides/kernel/>
## Know issues
- Sound is not working after the install. Follow the instructions detailed by @kevineinarsson: <https://gist.github.com/kevineinarsson/8e5e92664f97508277fefef1b8015fba>
On MBP 16,1, you might also need to disable realtime scheduling if the above gist doesn't work, because the pulseaudio server might get killed if the realtime budget is exceeded (<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94629>). Just add `realtime-scheduling = no` to `/etc/pulse/daemon.conf`.
- Checksum is failing for 2 files: md5sum.txt and /boot/grub/bios.img
- I'm having troubles shutting down ubuntu. Screen is black but fan keeps on working. I have to force shutdown.
## Not working (Following the mikeeq/mbp-fedora)
- Dynamic audio input/output change (on connecting/disconnecting headphones jack)
- TouchID - (@MCMrARM is working on it - https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux/issues/71#issuecomment-528545490)
- Thunderbolt (is disabled, because driver was causing kernel panics (not tested with 5.5 kernel))
