Macbook Air

Hi everyone!

Just a quick question: Can tinycore run on a mac laptop, like MacBook Air for example?

Have fun using this amazingly customizable distro,

If you search through "off-topic", curaga got a "mac something" to run.

Yes, most things work on Macs. The touchpad being the exception, currently.

The thread in the off-topic section has more detailed writing about how I installed, etc.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Hi curaga!

I read the off-topic information yesterday and it really seems to work good on Macbooks. Thank you for the information. I'm holding my eyes open for another laptop since this one is 8.5+ years old and I don't think it will last forever. I works amazingly good though with tinycore.

Have fun helping us out in the tinycore forum,

EDIT I also always have liked the looks of Mac computers (Everyone a work of art)
