I have a macbook pro and I wanted to switch to linux (mint, mate). I have rEFInd installed and working, but everything is a total mess now. So here are some questions.
In the rEFInd boot menu I have 3 big icons with:
- "Boot EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi from EFI"
- "Boot Mac OS X from Recovery HD"
- "Boot Legacy OS from whole disk volume"
No.1 has only default boot options. No.2 has something like default, verbose, single, safe, 32-bit, 64-bit No.3 has Boot Legacy OS
Legacy doesn't translate well to my language so I'm a bit lost. But shouldn't legacy not be the way you normally would boot if there was no boot loader?
If I boot legacy I get "Missing Operating System".
- If I boot Recovery, I get into my OS with customised background, my downloads etc. (Is recovery just the name now?, or is this really messed up?)
- If I boot linux, I get a black screen after a logo. This happened after updating the video drivers to the recommended ones (and airport, but I don't think that is the problem).
Then I have the smaller icons with (not sure if this helps):
- "Start Apple Recovery on Recovery HD"
- "Start MDK utility at EFI\ubuntu\MokManager.efi on EFI"
- "About rEFInd"
- "Shut Down Computer"
- "Reboot Computer"
What is the best thing to do now?
