This page documents my install of Fedora Core 31 on a 2011 15 inch Macbook Pro 8 2. I had done this previously, but needed to do it again after installing an SSD. This time I thought I'd document it. I will revise this in the future for newer versions of Fedora, if necessary.

Follow these instructions at your ow risk!

Install

I'll be installing onto a 1 TB SSD, and dedicating the whole thing to Fedora (ie, no dual boot with Mac OS/OS X). I'm trying the KDE spin, although a lot here should be applicable to other editions as well.

Install Media

To do this install, I used a 4 GB USB flash drive. First, download the image, which I grabbed here.
