Today i tried Lubuntu 16.04.1 on a friends 2007 MacBook Pro

I got as far as Grub, and a warning message that it shut down 1 core due to overheating. :-D oops!

Is there anyone who has managed to run the Lubuntu LiveUSB on one of these machines, or even install Lubuntu 16.04?

I installed Lubuntu 16.04 on two different MacBooks (not the 'Pro' version), one 64-bit, and the other 32-bit. That is 16.04 as opposed to 16.04.1. I did not encounter any difficulties. With Lubuntu, I always install the 32-bit OS.

But I don't remember if I did a clean install, or if I upgraded from 15.10. My best guess is that I upgraded, now that I think of it.

The systems work fine, and the 64-bit machine is even one of my music performance machines.

The machine's fan seems to run more when I use Mac OS X, than when I run Lubuntu.

I also have a Ubuntu Unity (64-bit) partition on the 64-bit machine, which works fine (it's my backup system on that machine).
