[[!meta title="How to install Linux on a Macbook Pro 2016"]]
***Soon to come***
Alright - it has been [[a couple of years since I last installed
Linux on a Apple notebook|macbook-air-42-archlinux]], so it is time again.
I have just ordered the Macbook Pro 2016 (with real keys, because
the purpose of F1-F10 is exactly what Apple tries to reinvent with a
lot of colours) and plan to install Arch Linux on it in the next weeks.
I expect the
[[typical early adaptor problems|macbook-air-42-correcting-multimedia-key-mapping-and-status]] with the Wifi chipset and
maybe trouble with connecting external monitors (not only because it
is Apple, but also because [Intel Skylake support under Linux is pretty
bad at the moment](https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/51508)).
So if you are curious about how easy or hard it is - stay tuned and
checkout this site again in a couple of days!

If you want to discuss about Linux and Apple or other FOSS topics, you
are invited to [join the chat of ungleich](https://chat.with.ungleich.ch/),
the Linux / Unix / FOSS company that I am working for. We have pretty
strong opinions on some topics (not mentioning systemd here) and you
are invited to challenge them :-)
