I know Ubuntu has released a specific EFI boot file and live installation media specifically for macs to get around this, and I hope openSUSE does as well. Tried Ctl-Alt-F7, and plugging in an external monitor, but still nothing. If you started a live environment, after a minute you would hear the startup sound play, and I got the sense that my clicks and key presses were doing something, but the screen would never change. Whichever you select, it will drop into a log console, sometimes with the last entry reading "/usr/sbin/klogconsole". Early on the grub2 boot gives "error: terminal 'gfxterm' ins't found." The EFI Grub2 menu doesn't allow passing variables like nomodeset, so all you can do is start the Live environment, installation, or media check.

This is my walk through, for which I will try and give reasons for what I did to avoid the problems I encountered, and maybe some others can better explain the errors or think of better ways around them.įirst of all I tried booting a Live openSUSE USB, but immediately ran into issues with the EFI boot on the install media and macs weird EFI implementation (and maybe the combination intelHD and ATI graphics?). There is a lot of very good info about setting up a Hybrid MBR, a necessary evil for Macs and their weird EFI, on this page: and I recommend reading as much as you can. Here Is my guide for triple booting MacOS Lion, WindowsXP, and openSUSE 12.3.
