    imac 2009 install

    I put a new blank SSD in a 2009 iMac. The previous HDD was running Manjaro. I tried installing Kubuntu on it (OSx is gone). The installer works great. I have to tell it safe graphics mode to get into the Kubuntu installer.

    Once everything has installed and I reboot, I am presented with the attached screen.

    It then goes on to show a screen divided up into 4 parts for a few seconds (see attached). The computer then just shuts off.

    Yes, the computer works as I pulled a working HDD out.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks
