I have a mid-2012 MacBook Pro retina system - a 10,1 machine with 2.7GHz i7, 750 gig SSD, and the Intel HD Graphics 4000.
I put Qubes 3.1 on an 8 gig USB and booted the system with option key held down. Qubes shows up as "EFI Boot" and it starts to a menu with four options: Test media and install Qubes R3.1 Install Qubes R3.1 Troubleshooting - verbose boot and Install Qubes R3.1 Rescue a Qubes System I tried the first three and played a bit with the command prompt. When selected the options flash something about a "file path:" which passes to quickly for me to see, then it returns to the menu. My install target is an external USB 3.0 enclosure with a 120 gig SSD that does a good job of running OSX. I was motivated to attempt this direct install based on this article, which explains how to get the Broadcom BCM4313 wireless card working. I realize the author installed Qubes using a PC, then shifted to running it on a 10,1 Mac similar to mine. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/pcPwoNsq-j8/discussion https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/qubes-users/broadcom$20success/qubes-users/VVwWqvz5dX4/Xbum_4MaCgAJ Next I'll try a PC install to the external drive, then boot it on the Mac. I just wanted to leave this here in case anyone else is tempted to try this experiment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
