Ubuntu doesn’t boot from ISO

[alazarolop]

Hi,

First of all, thank you for creating the Ubuntu iso. I’ve tried to use it in my MacBook Pro 15,1, but I wasn’t able to boot Ubuntu.

With any of the boot options (try or directly install), I got a message of dhd_os_wifi_platform_set_power: Setting wl_reg_on to 1 succeeded and then the display turns black, though still on. After a minute the TouchBar turns on, but the display stays black. I’ve also tried to use nosplash option, but I don’t get any verbose message neither.

If I use a default Ubuntu ISO, I can boot and complete the installation process using USB keyboard and mouse.

Thank you

Apparently, it could be related to a kernel issue in 5.6 that breaks amdgpu driver Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux#142 .

Please try the new release. That should be working now. There where errors on the Grub configuration.
About the error, I see this too, but is loading afterwards. Enjoy.

Ok. Thank you a lot!

@marcosfad thank you for the effort and the latest improvements.

Just for the records, the new 5.6.10 release didn't work out for my MBP 15,1 eventually, but a custom iso with the kernel 5.4.27-mbp did it. It's really awesome!
