Hello everyone,
I recently created a tool called Mac Linux USB Loader that allows you to create a live Linux USB system in OS X that boots on Mac hardware using EFI. It has gained some modest attention and I figured I'd post it here to help increase people's knowledge of it.
If any of you have a Mac or use OS X I would be very grateful if you would try this tool and see if you can use it to start up Linux. This requires no hacks, no rEFIt or rEFInd, nothing. It essentially copies the Linux ISO to a USB drive along with a special EFI executable that loads Linux. In the tradition of all things Linux, it is open source and the code is on my GitHub repository at:
github.com/SevenBits/Mac-Linux-USB-Loader
The program can be downloaded by going to:
github.com/SevenBits/Mac-Linux-USB-Loader/downloads
Please note that this is beta software. You can get more information on it on the repo and you can of course fork the it and help me out.
