You just need an USB 3.0 key to install Linux on, on top of your Linux installation Media. Best of both worlds, try Linux until you're ready to commit your internal drive. Please check [linux.com article] (https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/718439-how-to-run-fedora-linux-on-the-macbook-air-without-touching-the-ssd) - -You want to dump the FaceTime drivers while still under OS X. Commands below works on OS X 10.11.2: -* Download the driver (zip version) and extract it -* Under bcwc_pcie-master/firmware edit the "extract_from_ox.sh" script -* Line 2, replace IN=AppleCameraInterface with IN=/System/Library/Extensions/AppleCameraInterface.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleCameraInterface -* md5sum is missing from a vanilla OS X 10.11 installation, replace "md5sum" by "md5 -r" (lines 7 & 24) -* Line 5, replace the hash value so it states: OSX_HASH=ccea5db116954513252db1ccb639ce95 -* Save and execute the script: ./extract_from_ox.sh -* Result should be like: - - $ ./extract_from_osx.sh - Found matching hash (ccea5db116954513252db1ccb639ce95) - Firmware successfully extracted (4e1d11e205e5c55d128efa0029b268fe) - -* There should be a firmware.bin file created in the current directory. - -## Get Started on Fedora -As of 2015.12, Fedora 23 is current. It will not recognize the internal WiFi card (Broadcom) so you need either the Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter, or any USB Ethernet Adapter known to work on Fedora. -Install Fedora. - -Once installed, update it: sudo dnf update - -You should get everything working (including keyboard backlight, screen brightness, sound) but the FaceTime camera and the WiFi card. Adding the Wifi drivers is outside of this document, and is [well documented - see steps 5 & 6] (http://mattoncloud.org/2014/02/05/fedora-20-on-a-macbook-air/). - -Now download the driver. -(more to come) \ No newline at end of file +[http://chrisrjones.com/articles/How-to-get-the-broadcom-pci-1570-web-cam-working-in-Linux-using-qemu-with-OS-X-VM](http://chrisrjones.com/articles/How-to-get-the-broadcom-pci-1570-web-cam-working-in-Linux-using-qemu-with-OS-X-VM) \ No newline at end of file
