Installing Linux on Macbook runing High Sierra 10.13.6

This seems to be an old problem but i cannot find an answer. My Mac won’t run the bootable drive i create. Not sure how to get around that. Help.

Macbook Air, 4 GB, 1.7 gHz Intel i5 chip.

Just to clarify - are you trying to use your Mac to provision another device with balenaOS, or are you attempting to run balenaOS directly on your MacBook?
Could you share a bit more detail about the device type, the provisioning process you followed, and any logs or errors you’re seeing?

That will help us understand the issue better and guide you toward the solution.

I have both a MacBook Air and a Windows PC. I can use either one to get the balenaOS, with the goal of installing Linux on the MacBook. I have High Sierra 10.13.6 and an Intel processor on the MacBook. Hope that gives you what you need to know.
