This last one is simple but have worked good, will install a visual multiboot with some tools etc. Worth to mention here some new boot load installers as YUMI he mentioned: I tried Multibootusb, Sardu and Ventoy.

Finally, as long they say Ubuntu is good for the Macs, they drop official distro in 14, there is no update from 14 to 16 and above, so forget about Ubuntu support for Macs. I confess I am kinda sick of Ubuntu (and flavors) problems, they are not few and some are critical, not easy to solve, Terminal all the time and so on. As for Linux distros, I don't have knowledge enough to say for sure, but as long Ubuntu is very popular and always mentioned as reference, Debian is better. Don't even try Catalina, Mojave is better, as Snow Leopard was much better than Lion for the Mac mini. I know there is the Olaria distro and also the payed Osafo option. I haven't experienced yet, but I bet the old CPU will struggle to run Mojave.

Besides, a 120GB SSD is enough for most cases today, so the couple SSD + superdrive might be a good idea for your old hardware. As long USB solutions are much better in several aspects, old firmware was made for "CD-ROM dependent" hardware, the case of those Mac minis.Before I start to try those ISOs and solutions, I will make some considerations that might be useful for others reading this thread and needing info:
OLARIA MAC OS X SNOW LEOPARD ISO 64 BIT
After a quick read, I realize I got close to achieve a successful installation of a 64 bit Linux OS, real close! But I got no background enough for that, as Apollo 13 mission, close and far away looks the same. Wow! There is a lot of good stuff there, and updated! I am looking at now. Try to install in a new partition using this installation - not sure if it possible, I might try to make a clone of this partition to try some experiments and not lose the only OS is working right here.There is an old article in Ubuntu site and this one: Medium Article There is a claim that is possible, but the optical media will be required. But the start point is Ubuntu 32 bits that is not recognized either. Try to make a custom bootable USB stick - no documentation for Debian, only for Ubuntu.Upgrade this Debian to 64 bits - but there is low documentation about, not sure if this one will work due to the age:, Many people doubt will work 100% or if will even work.Debian 10 32 bits - works nice! It's almost totally abandoned by the market.Īs I researched and discussed around the web, I have some paths to follow:.Windows 7 32 bits - works good, but it's abandoned by Microsoft.But I keep it in a small partition, just in case. Mac OS X Lion - works badly, will flood memory and stops in couple hours, besides, it's abandoned by Apple and everyone.
I have tried a lot of different OSs with both architectures and the systems that will boot are: This Mac Mini got no optical drive (I will try tu put one but is not guarantee it will work), so I have to boot from USB. So it's just to install a 64 OS or upgrade this one right? Well. 32 bit, despite my efforts, it's a dead architecture. but there is almost nothing to really work on it. I have a Mac Mini mid 2007 with Debian 10 32 bit running just fine.
