Dear folks,
20160910
off topic but what Linux distro could read and write to a mac
computer's external back up?
Impoverished new student (medical) has present of a Mac-Book Air from
her father.
I would like her to have a 'secondary computer' at her lodgings
just to read her backup USB external hard disc in case her Mac-book air
is stolen(External hard disc back up USB or such, I have recommended she
have, as I have had some students with no back ups and thus trouble, but
on Windows computers, where i have recovered their non booting machines.)
I have no experience of Mac computers but do have an old machine Core-2
Pro CPU running Linux (Linux Mint 17) and I could change the distro and
give to her.
What distro should I load for her?
