You should be able to plug in a fedora 18 usb installer, and from the
standard EFI boot menu (hold option while pressing power) you should see
the fedora logo and be able to install from it. This will give you efi
mode. Try to avoid booting from the system with a disc icon that says
"windows" (aka bios emulation).

Most hardware in the most mode works, except for dual graphics switching
to the intel gpu. See this bug for details.
