windows 7 on macbook mid 2007 sound driver

Get rEFInd working on your Mac Mini (This might not be strictly necessary, but I used it and it worked and I'm not reinstalling OS X and trying again without it). Well, the ones that made forward progress, anyway. Hope this helps the three other people doing this within the next ten years. This took me three days of pain and agony and searching to find out how to do it. Okay, here's an answer from 2018, that actually works (I did it on a 2,1 Mac Mini Late 2007). Here is a link to the actual manual: Mac mini (Mid 2007) Service Manual. If interested, a service manual can be found at this site. This would be an upgrade to your existing optical drive. A factory refurbished Apple SuperDrive 8x DVD Burner Drive can be purchased for $8.75. To install Ubuntu using a DVD, you would have to repair your optical drive. Actually, the instructions can be found at Boot camp install of Windows 7 issue, no bootable devices. This option is 'off topic' and it would be better to ask at the site Ask Different. This would require installing a free copy of VirtualBox on OS X. Without a working optical drive, you could still install Windows. Making a USB bootable recover disk assistant will allow you to reload OS X Lion from Apple's web site. If you do, try to see if you can boot to it. If you have Lion installed, did you make a bootable USB flash drive using the OS X Recovery Disk Assistant v1.0? If not, then does your mac still have its hidden recovery system partition? You can determine this by holding down the option key at startup. I did successfully install Ubuntu to an external disk using the DVD. The DVD verified OK, but the flash drive listed an error in 1 file. I used instructions posted here to create the flash drive.

I was able to boot ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso from a DVD and USB flash drive.
