I'm curious if anybody has been able to install Phoenix Debian on a Macbook Pro.

So far I'm out of luck on my machine. I'll post updates as I come across them.

Also, do we have a wiki page setup yet for PhoenixOS? If not I think it would be a good idea for us to start developing one. I found the old Freespire wiki as the most useful tool next to the forums in my linux learning experience.

So far each attempt on my Mac has been to install Phoenix Debian as a dual boot with OS X, thus far I've not been able to get Phoenix to recognize any of my partitions. I've tried using gparted as well as the Mac partitioner. I've reformatted and moved my Linux partitions to the front of the drive as was suggested on the Debian forums... No luck.

Oh well. At this point I'm going to install Phoenix Precise again and call it a day. I'll wait until the next Debian Release. I think it is an issue with the installer, as Mint Debian was able to see and install on my linux partition.
