Hi

I've got hold of an intel mac that I'm interested in getting Debian
running.  I've seen quite a few folks running Debian on MacBook Pro at
Debconf in Mexico, and I'm surprised that there aren't Debian
packages.

The things I'm planning on doing are follows:

Code packages
        fix gnu-efi (bug: #376000)
        fix elilo (bug: #376002)
        ITP rEFIt (bug: #375999)
(I've filed bugs to track their progress)

Debian-installer:
        elilo-installer is not built for ia32 
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2006/06/msg00185.html)

        erfit-installer ?


Anyone already working on these stuff?

I don't quite grok how I can make erfit be the default bootloader
without access to MacOSX command-line to 'bless', I hope I can find
out as I delve deeper.

Hi Junichi,

Just to put on your radar:
