I am interested in dual-booting a Linux distro (probably Ubuntu) on my 2019 MacBook Pro. Ideally, I would have a shared data partition so that I could access my documents from both OSes. Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to accomplish this?
Dual booting is the easy part, but exposing the Linux filesystem is the hard part.
I personally would just run Linux as a VM inside macOS using Parallels or Oracle Virtualbox. It will be alot easier and more reliable.
Plus the hardware will work properly whereas with Linux on bare metal Mac, some hardware doesn’t work at all like thunderbolt, SD cards and webcam.
Yes, I do think you have a point. That’s what I’ve done for several years, but I think it’s time…
Ok, good luck 🤞
