Title:
MacBook Pro EFI firmware updates not installable in Ubuntu
Status in Mactel Support:
Confirmed
Status in “efibootmgr” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: efibootmgr
Quite a few people seem to be working on ways of getting Ubuntu on
MacBook Pro (MBP), and it does seem to work in a way. However, if one
uses Ubuntu as one's only operating system on a MBP, you can no longer
profit from bug fixes coming with EFI updates.
Would it be possible and legal to implement an Ubuntu EFI updater into
Ubuntu 8.10 or later? EFI updates are available on Apple's website.
