I’ve been playing with Linux on two old Macbooks (4,1 and 2,1). The 4,1 system has Ubuntu while the 2,1 system is running Crunchbang. To me the stock Ubuntu install is a bit to much for me, and I much prefer the Crunchbang install. However I have EFI boot issues with the CB install.

So here are a few quick links:

grub-efi-amd64 is also a useful package’s… I think.
