    Ubuntu base system from mac alternate CD

    Hi!

    I am trying to install Ubuntu server (base system) on my MacBook2,1 but I only succeed with the complete desktop installation. Which is by using ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64+mac.iso.

    I tried using ubuntu-11.10-server-amd64.iso and minimal 11.10 but I just get the "1.2.Select CD-ROM Boot Type" problem.

    I tried both Ubuntu 11.04 server and ubuntu minimal 11.04 which installs fine but then does not boot. I get a black screen where I can type stuff on boot both nothing happens.

    What I want:
    Only the server installation for Ubuntu on my MacBook

    What I can do but do not want:
    Install full desktop system with ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64+mac.iso.

    I do not want any dualboot. Just a simple Ubuntu server installation on the entire disk.

    Is there a way to only install the base system with the alternate cd?

    There was a basic installation mode when pressing F4 on the boot menu. Problem solved.
