Hi all, I'm running Fedora 12 on an older macbook pro. For a long time I've had a co-installation of Fedora and OS X. Since I never use OS X, I'd like to install over the OS X partition (my plan is to try to install the F13 alpha over the OS X partition, and keep my existing F12 installation in case something goes wrong). The problem that I have is that I've been using refit (http://refit.sourceforge.net/) as my EFI boot environment. So right now when I boot my computer, refit loads, and then that loads grub, and grub boots the kernel normally. It's my understanding that overwriting the OS X volume would break refit, making my computer unbootable. It's also my understanding that: * GRUB 0.9x does not support EFI volumes * GRUB 2 supports EFI, but isn't supported by Fedora The GRUB 2 package description specifically states: : This is a development snapshot, and as such will not : replace grub if you install it, but will be merely added as another : kernel to your existing GRUB menu. Do not replace GRUB (grub : package) with it unless you know what are you doing. Does anyone have any advice on how to proceed? At this point I don't care about support for OS X (or Windows), I just want to make sure that whatever I do next I'll be able to boot an operating system after rebooting my laptop.
