[QUOTE="shellback3, post: 1258597, member: 206072"] I have an old mini with Snow Leopard on it that has been sitting in a closet since I purchased an iMac There is a problem with the CD/DVD drive that I didn't want to fix ($$). I'd like to load Ubuntu on it from a memory stick so that I can learn some LINUX for work related tasks but the memory stick does not show up as a boot-able device even though I created it on the mini. Is there anyway around this? (I do have instructions on how to do this over a LAN but it involves loading a server and other software on the other computer and I don't want to do this as it will probably take a long time and it's complicated.) Thanks [/QUOTE]
