Here are some notes on intalling Debian Linux Etch (testing as of August 2006) on a small Intel Mac Mini with Intel Core solo 1,5 Ghz as a dualboot environment with MacOS X.
At the time of this writing Etch comes with Kernel 2.6.16
(:*toc:)
Conclusion
The Intel-based Mac Mini is a nice, small and very quite machine. And of course it runs GNU/Linux, though it still will take some time until it is completely supported by stable distributions with an easy and painless install procedure. Expect some patching and compiling for now ...
Preparation
As opposed by standard Intel PC the Intel Mac-Mini comes with a EFI firmware and Mac uses a GBR partition table instead of MBR like Windows and Linux. Current Linux bootloaders are not able to understand these hybrid partion tables so you need tools like Apple's bootcamp and rEFIt to handle those in a multi-boot evironment.
see also: Mactel's Boot Alternatives
Update Firmware
Update your firmware for Mac mini (at least Version 1.0.1) following its instructions.
>> apple's firmwareupdate
Install rEFIt
install the EFI boot menu and maintenance kit, following its instructions.
>> rEFIt
Install apple's bootcamp
Install apple's bootcamp, following its instructions.
>> bootcamp
System settings (Mac OS X)
Enable "Restart automatically after a power failure" (System Preferences -> Energy Saver)
Resize your Mac-partition:
Start the Boot Camp Assistant (in Applications/Utilities).
You don't need to burn a driver disc and ignore all mentions of windows. Just resize your hfs+ partition and make free what you wanna use linux for.
Installation
Now reboot you mac and choose the CD-ROM drive in the rEFIt boot menu. Installation should be painless as normal with a debian i386 network installer CD from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/. some important notes:
Network configuration
The network configuration dialogue confronted me with 2 ethernet devices. Choose the Marvell (which is supported by the sky2 driver - and on eth1 in my case).
Partitioning
choose manual partioning, delete the windows partition and re-partion the free space for your Linux setup (root-partition and swap)
Bootloader
Choose Go Back on the screen for install the GRUB-bootloader and choose to install LILO (GRUB does need to be patched at the time of this writing). Install LILO to the Master Boot Record (MBR) it's save since Mac uses the GBR Partition table.
Xserver-xorg configuration
The integrated Intel GMA950 graphics processor is supported by xorg
Choose "i810" as driver.
Finish Installation
Finish the installation as usual, following the on-screen instruction. You should now have a basic (mostly) working Debian Linux System. Test it. If satiesfied you can re-configure rEFIt boot manager to boot up Linux as default.
Post-Installation, configurations, problems & drawbacks
Sound
Sound ouput did not work on default install with Kernel 2.6.16 - at least analogue output (I was unequipped to test optical output), but also lacked error messages. Sound programs behaved as normal the machine just stayed quiet.
Compiling a new kernel - 2.6.18-rc4 with applied Mactel patchset solved that issue and also brings some new mac related goodies...
>> mactel-linux kernel patches
Xorg setup - hardware acceleration (DRI)
Direct rendering did not work with the default install, although it should be supported and it inticated so in the xorg logfile. However running glxinfo gave me:
ERROR! sizeof(I830DRIRec) does not match passed size from device driver libGL warning: 3D driver returned no fbconfigs. libGL error: InitDriver failed libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: No
This seems to due to a bug in the libgl-mesa library. Installing new versions of libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-dri from debian experimental solved that issue.

Not yet tested functionalities include: Power Management, Wireless Networking, Bluetooth, Apple IR Remote Control and Firewire
