EFI problem on Macbook install

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1973 / 2 Years ago, wed, october 26, 2022, 5:46:31

I'm trying to put ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64+mac on a MacBook5,2 model but right after booting into the USB, it gives the error:

Could not open "EFIBOOTallback.efi": 14

Any ideas? I'm replacing a totally messed up OS X with Linux.

I managed to successfully install Ubuntu on a new-ish Macbook recently (this time because I needed to return it to my employer and wanted to make sure everything is wiped out but that he could still see it functional). Used this guide.
