Wipefs: WARNING: /dev/sdb: appears to contain 'gpt' partition tableĭo you want to replace the MBR on this device?ĮRROR: This live image does not support EFI booting Press Enter to continue or ctrl-c to abort WARNING: THIS WILL DESTROY ANY DATA ON /dev/sdb!!! The media check is complete, the result is: PASS. # livecd-iso-to-disk -format -efi CentOS-7-x86_64-LiveGNOME-1708.iso /dev/sdb1 Unetbootin persistence install#But the boot menu has only Install CentOS 7 option (which in turn returns some error that an img file is missing and I should load kernel first). It shows EFI Boot option on Apple's Startup Manage. Unetbootin persistence iso#Then I tested the CentOS 7 Minimal iso which doesn't return any errors in livecd-iso-to-disk command. "livecd-iso-to-disk" is a command available in CentOS which I run in a Virtual machine. livecd-iso-to-disk returns the following error: ERROR: This live image does not support EFI booting (see below). Unetbootin persistence windows#This explains why I see only Windows option in Apple's Startup Manager. It seems that CentOS-7-x86_64-LiveGNOME-1708.iso doesn't support EFI, but only MBR (BIOS) installations as in the pre-6.5 era. Unetbootin persistence mac#So, I would like to ask how do I configure Debian 9.4 or CentOS 7.4 live distros, to work with persistent storage on my Mac Mini (Late 2014)? If that is not possible, please suggest a working live Linux distro and exact steps. I want to reach a working live distro and then add a persistent storage to that image. Confirmed as functioning correctly are Rufus (may depend on options selected, there have been reports of failure with rufus too), Fedora LiveUSB Creator, Win32 Disk Imager, Rawrite32 and dd for Windows. Applications known (so far) to NOT work are unetbootin, multibootusb and "universal usb installler" - do NOT use these. Moreover, the CentOS 7 installer image has a special partitioning which, as of July 2014, most Windows tools do NOT transfer correctly leading to undefined behaviour when booting from the USB key. CentOS wiki states that:Įxactly the same method (dd for CentOS v6.5) works for CentOS 7. I also tested Fedora Media Writer, but with the same black screen. Only a Windows option is available on Apple's Startup Manager, but when I select it a black screen appears with no USB drive activity.
