Macbook Pro 2015
by slkw from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4VNM6)
Hi all,
I'm interested in installing Gentoo on my Macbook Pro 2015, which is the macbook12,1 model.
I've already installed Debian, which has a very clunky UI and a terrible package manager and I want something better.
I managed to install Gentoo in a VM some time ago but now I want it on real hardware.
My Wifi requires a firmware blob on Debian and I don't have a USB Ethernet adapter.
Does anyone know how formidable a task it is to get Gentoo on this laptop?
Are there any definite roadblocks?
I also want to install it into LUKS-encrypted partitions.
Thanks.
