Still very happy with my old hardware. But macOS is performing very slow on this 2009 MacBook Pro. So I thought to give Linux a try. I am new to Linux and have little to no experience with fiddling around with terminals, but willing to give it a try.
My problem is that I managed to install Ubuntu and boot from my internal UBUNTU partition. But after seeing the Ubuntu logo, I just get to a grey screen. Nothing else from there.
Here's my path:
Thank you in advance to help me do my first steps with Ubuntu and get this thing to run! :smile:

Here's my path:
- Installed Ubuntu according this instruction, following the path of a dual-boot solution: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/instal...x-macbook-pro/
- Continuously bumping into this grey screen when booting Ubuntu, so started to troubleshoot with Google. Came across this solution: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
- Rebooted from memory stick with live system, and installed boot repair from system that's running from USB stick
- I did NOT create an analysis first and then run boot repair. Instead I ran boot repair immediately.
- At the end of the repair process I got asked to create a pastebin which I did: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pQcjxmh55P/, https://paste.pics/O9EBK
- Rebooted from internal disk, still no cigar
- decided to ask for help
