I could of course be wrong, but nothing I found contradicted these facts. On my own iMac, when I tried to do preupgrade from the working F15 to F16 the system would not boot into F16. I the tried to install the live CD and I could not get that to boot either. I tried both using reFit and using the whole disk. Has anyone managed to install F16 on a Mac without using any extra options such as nopgt or changing partion flags after install? /Andreas > Adam Williamson > Fedora QA Community Monkey > IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora > http://www.happyassassin.net > > -- > devel mailing list > devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
