YES and to deactivate your SIP you tape :
csrutil disable
then
reboot
And again go on the Recovery mode to make partitions with terminal
Did that
so now give me finally the result from :
sudo gpt -r -vv show /dev/disk0
It will give us all details of your scheme disk0 in case you already delete some partition in the past, to make something clean
are you here ?
gpt show: /dev/disk0: mediasize=1000555581440; sectorsize=4096; blocks=244276265
gpt show: /dev/disk0: PMBR at sector 0
gpt show: /dev/disk0: Pri GPT at sector 1
gpt show: /dev/disk0: Sec GPT at sector 244276264
start size index contents
0 1 PMBR
1 1 Pri GPT header
2 4 Pri GPT table

So itâs clean, the space empty 189530112 54746148 meaning 134783964 free blocks (512 octets = 263 Go)
We need use this space to create our partitions for EnOS
ok
Copy now a :
sudo diskutil list/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *1.0 TB disk0
1: EFI EFI 314.6 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_APFS Container disk1 776.0 GB disk0s2
/dev/disk1 (synthesized):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: APFS Container Scheme - +776.0 GB disk1
Physical Store disk0s2
1: APFS Volume Macintosh HD - Data 455.0 GB disk1s1
2: APFS Volume Preboot 82.0 MB disk1s2
3: APFS Volume Recovery 528.5 MB disk1s3
4: APFS Volume VM 1.1 GB disk1s4
5: APFS Volume Macintosh HD 10.8 GB disk1s5
ok sorry I was checking to be sure, first unmount the DISK0 concerned :
diskutil unmountDisk disk0
Then, this command will create an EXT4 partition in the free space, itâs up to you to add more partitions as you want, what is important is to calculate the number of blocks (512octets) inside the space you have here to get the size of your partition :
sudo gpt add -b 189530112 -s 54746148 -t ext4 disk0isnât that the hard drive
Which hard drive you want to put your Partition for Linux ?
Yes this the empty space corresponding to the windows bootcamp we deleted.
I think i want to try using an external hard disk first
As you want, I think if you want be safe, for sure, try it on another hard drive first, at least you have the way to partition your disk correctly directly from Terminal which is really better than Disk UtilityâŚ
ok
So on another hard drive, to make it as gpt header and partition like this :
1/ 550MB EFI FAT32 Boot
2/ 30GB SYSTEM EXT4
3/ XXXGB HOME EXT4
On a new disk is very simple to partition it (replace X by your disk number, check with Diskutil list before to find it and XXX by the size depending your size disk :
sudo diskutil partitionDisk /dev/diskX gpt fat32 EFI 550MB ext4 SYSTEM 30g ext4 HOME XXXg 0bhave to go now
I will make sure the disk is formated and partition tommorow (or whenever we can carry on)
thank you
You are welcome, good night, and tell me tomorrow if itâs ok.
Then when your disk is ready, just prepare your ISO on your usb key and like usual keep the ALT when you started to boot on the UEFI USB KEY then choose to install on your SYSTEM partition EXT4.
Donât forget, you will need a keyboard and mouse plugged in your mac until you install the driver later, not sure, but if it happens donât worry.
