How repaired hdd in old osx 8.6 mac i386.
A live usb with debian 10.9 buster did it asked to change from Bios boot to
Uefi boot & reinstalled hdd. Laptop works. So now can put distro in usb, &
try which debian based distro works best on Mac osx 10.13.6. MX, PsychOS,
Manjaro, Debian?
I liked the software setup in Psychos; many writing tools in it.
