I have a Mac Pro 2006 version 1.1. I have been using Ubuntu on some PC's for a while and have fallen in love with the OS. I have tried a few others like Pear OS and mint and a couple others. My question is i followed the directions in the mac pro support section but i can't get the install disk to load in my Mac Pro. I successfully installed Pear OS from the disk but as its no longer supported i would like to switch to Ubunutu permanently. I have every version on disk from 10.04 to 14.04 (Mac versions where available) and I'm running rEFInd as the boot loader. for some reason none of the Ubuntu disks will load from rEFInd. I have installed Pear OS 7 and 8 from the disk flawlessly. Can anyone think of any reason why the Ubuntu disks would not load? I can't even get it to show up in the boot loader as an option but Pear shows up just fine. What am i missing?
