any of you try Beaker Browser?
Saw it when I was looking at Unwalled Garden. Pretty interesting, nothing too ground breaking but would love to hear your thoughts

Lynx is so much fun! Wish L1T was optimized for it, while it’s super great to lurk and read it… I cant log in, so I cant really use the forum.
Maybe I’m missing something and someone could help me out (or maybe it would be easy to fix cough cough @wendell)

sooo @Adubs @AnotherDev @redgek… anyone
if say I am getting an error on my macbook air of “failed to start loader.efi : (14) not found” does this mean I need to load rEFIt? From what I read online its not really clear
Backstory is this Macbook Air had no hard drive, I got one online but it has been wiped so no OS on it. when trying to start antergros everything works on preboot menu (which is weird cuz I think its a 32 bit but w/e) however it goes to that fail message when trying to boot one of those options
probably. Idk anything about linux on macs

i have tried about 3 distros now… all are having issues getting into the usb installer. I am thinking there must be something stopping it from what I read on the screen, maybe a hardware issue?
macs will only boot efi
how are you making the USB?

ugh, do I have to grow up and be an adult? I want to be a script kiddie forever
prob, I cant find a single guide that is doing what I am doing. Everyone is duel booting or starting with OSX then overwriting to Linux. One guide said if I didn’t have OSX, you would need to reinstall… but idk sounds dumb if so
welcome to apple
