Specs:


• Intel Core i3 3217U (1.80GHz)

• 4GB Memory(non-upgradeable)

• 240GB SSD

• Intel HD Graphics 4000

• Intel HM76 Chipset

• Intel HD Audio

• Azurewave AW-CE123H 802.11ac/nbg WiFi+BT PCI Express Module Broadcom BCM4352 / Bluetooth 4.0+3.0 HS Class II

• Multiformat DVDRW/CD-RW drive

 

Install Yosemite to the entire drive; http://www.insanelym...352hmb-install/

 

Create Ubuntu 14.04.2 installation USB

 

Next I shrank the partition in Yosemite > Disk Utility 

 

Booted to Ubuntu 14.04.2 installation USB by setting BIOS boot option to "EFI: SanDiskxxxxxx" and not "SanDiskxxxxxxx". To confirm you are in Ubuntu EFI Installation mode

 

Install Ubuntu by choosing the "Something Else" option

 

Create your Ubuntu install partition in the free space area; leaving 4GB for the Swap area we'll create next

 

Create your Ubuntu Swap area partiton in the remaining free space

 

Choose your Mac EFI partition for the Ubuntu Boot Loader

 

Install Ubuntu and reboot into BIOS

 

Ubuntu 14.04.2 EFI Mode Installer will add a boot option to your BIOS called "Ubuntu"

 

Now you can choose either OS, from the BIOS, when booting. Clover will also boot to Ubuntu EFI; Choose the Ubuntu icon while booting Clover.
