@ActionRetro what do you reckon is the oldest Mac that modern Ubuntu will run on?

@ActionRetro @sudoaptgetlife I ran Linux Mint 64bit alongside Lion on a 2006 iMac with rEFInd IIRC, was a bit of a faff but it worked!
@sudoaptgetlife @ActionRetro The oldest I daily-drive is a 2009 MBP5,3 (so, just after that switch) with :linuxmintnew: 21.2 beta (So, :ubuntu: w/:cinnamon: instead of :gnome:, native flatpaks instead of snaps). |
@sudoaptgetlife I bet it can run on any of the 64 bit Intel Macs - even the ones with the hybrid 32/64 bit with a special bootloader thats out there.
