I have been trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my MacBook Pro 5,5. I have been following this tutorial to make it work :: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/install-linux-macbook-pro/
There is a section of EFI boot fix int blog just mentioned. It asks me after the installation and before restarting run two commands
1) sudo apt-get install efibootmgr
2) sudo efibootmgr
But when I run the second command on the terminal I get an error saying ::
Fatal: Couldn't open either sysfs or procfs directories for accessing EFI variables.
Try 'modprobe efivars' as root.
I have tried searching but nothing makes sense to me, since I am very new to running commands on terminal (have always been working on windows).
I want to dual boot Mac OS X and Ubuntu on my MacBook Pro.
I have tried ignoring this step, and then my Ubuntu doesn't boot, it starts the Mac OS. Thanks for any help! :)
