Hello,
I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my MBP, I'm using MacBook Pro "15 Late 2008; 5,1.
I tried a lot of times to install it with so many different ways with so many different versions, I've installed rEFit 0.14, and burned two Ubuntu versions, the 12.10 32bit and 12.10 64bit.
also I tried to install the 12.04 64bit.
After the rEFit screen I choose the Penguin icon which is allow me to proceed the installation, after that I get the purple screen with the icons on the bottom.
after that I get a blank black screen with blinking cursor, then it happens. A mysterious symbol appears then everything stops. I can't go anywhere else but to force shutdown the computer.
Sometimes I get the ∑ symbol, the ⋲ and the π symbol, each shows alone by itself.
Where did I go wrong? what should I do?
