Hello there,
I've been trying for two days now to install Ubuntu onto my Macbook Air; I have the second generation model. As there is no disc drive, I have been attempting a USB install. Obviously, I have seen this page and followed the instructions to a T:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ho...%20USB%20Stick
These instructions don't seem to work. Before the final step in which I am supposed to eject the drive via terminal a notification window pops up and says: "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer". When I restart the computer and hold down the "alt/option" key I only have the option to boot from the OS X drive. When I click on the original ISO as well as the converted dmg version of the disc image file it says: "No mountable file systems".
So far I have attempted both 32 and 64 bit editions of 11.04 and 11.10 as well as the +mac versions of each and I get the same results.
I am so frustrated and just want to get into using Ubuntu! Much appreciation to anybody who can help me out.
Thanks
-Ian
