Which kind of Macbook is this? At the top of https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Macbook I see a big fat warning that 2016 and 2017 Macbooks do not yet work well with Linux (the kernel, I suppose). Some of these issues may have workarounds, but it would be good to know if they apply to your

bug#37021: root option during grub boot configuration

2019-08-15 Thread Calvin Heim
When I press e at GRUB to edit the boot configuration I have noticed that the identifier 31393730-3031-3031-3139-343934363833 is the default value of the --root option on the LiveUSB.  I will look into other possible values for this --root option.
