Who this tutorial is for 誰是本教程的
This tutorial is for anyone with an Intel based Mac who is curious about Linux - specifically Ubuntu, and has about an hour to kill (not including the time it takes to download Ubuntu).本教程是任何有英特爾處理器的Mac誰是好奇Linux操作系統-特別是U buntu的，並已約一個小時，以殺死（不包括所花費的時間下載U buntu的） 。
The steps and screenshots used for this tutorial are specific to Parallels Build 3188 (if you’re using a more recent version of Parallels, please see這些步驟和截圖用於本教程是針對Parallels的建設3188 （如果您使用的是較新版本的Parallels公司，請參閱 this tutorial instead本教程不是 ) running on a MacBook Pro w/ OS X (10.4.9). ）上運行的MacBook Pro瓦特/ OS X操作系統（ 10.4.9 ） 。 With that said, they will be nearly identical if you have a Mac Pro, Mac Mini, MacBook or any other Intel based Apple Mac.隨著中說，他們將幾乎相同，如果你有Mac Pro中，的Mac Mini的MacBook或任何其他基於Intel的蘋果。
Ubuntu is a free, open source Ubuntu是一個自由，開放源碼 Linux-based基於Linux的 operating system with a clear focus on the user and usability (it should “Just Work”).作業系統與一個明確的重點用戶和可用性（應“只要工作” ） 。 When you finish your Ubuntu installation your system is immediately usable.當您完成您的Ubuntu的安裝你的系統會立即使用。 On the desktop you have a full set of business productivity applications, internet applications, drawing and graphics applications, and games.在桌面上你有一整套企業生產力的應用，互聯網應用，繪圖和圖形應用程序和遊戲。 For more information on Ubuntu, visit欲了解更多信息在Ubuntu ，請訪問 http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu . 。
As you may have noticed, here at Simplehelp we often recommend software, and 90-something percent of the time that software is free.正如你可能已經注意到，在這裡Simplehelp我們常常建議軟件，以及90百分之東西的時候，軟件是免費的。 Parallels isn’t free, but it really is worth the cost. Parallels的不是免費的，但它確實是值得的成本。 It will allow you to run other operating systems (like Ubuntu) on your Mac - without having to worry about any of your OS X settings, documents or files being accidentally deleted.這將允許您運行其他操作系統（如Ubuntu的）在你的Mac上-而無需擔心您的任何O SX的設置，文檔或文件被意外刪除。 And if you don’t like Ubuntu you can trash it and carry on like it never happened.如果你不喜歡你可以Ubuntu的垃圾桶，並進行喜歡它從來沒有發生過。
One other (major) benefit of using Parallels is that you run the other operating system (in this case Ubuntu) while OS X is running.另外一個（主要）造福使用Parallels的是，你運行其他的操作系統（在這種情況下， Ubuntu的） ，而OS X操作系統正在運行。 You don’t need to restart your computer each time you want to switch from OS X to Ubuntu and vice-versa.您不必重新啟動計算機每次要切換從OS X到Ubuntu的，反之亦然。

Just a note for anyone who cares..只是說明，任何人誰在乎.. I’ve been a big Parallels fan up till now, but Feisty seems to work a lot better in VMware Fusion (whose beta is free).我一直在一個大風扇的Parallels直至目前為止，但似乎活躍了很多工作更好地融合在VMware （其試用版是免費的） 。 It’s worth checking out VMware Fusion and giving it a go.值得一提檢查的VMware Fusion和賦予它去。 I imagine VMware will charge for it in the future (or maybe not?) but if you want the most solid Linux VM experience on OS X it’s the way to go..我想VMware將負責在未來（或也許不是？ ） ，但如果你想在最堅實經驗的Linux VM的OS X上它是要走的路.. it also supports using both of your cores, which Parallels doesn’t.它也支持同時使用的核心，這並不Parallels的。

I had the same hanging issue while loading the piix device, and tried the “reinstall” that was offered as a solution by someone on here.我有同樣的問題，同時掛載入piix裝置，並試圖在“重新安裝”這是作為一個解決方案，有人在這裡。 No luck…still locking on the same piix device.沒有運氣...仍然鎖定在同一piix設備。
I was happy to find this walkthrough, but it’s not working for me, as the install hangs during “detecting hardware… please wait” while “Loading module ‘piix’ for ‘Intel Corp 82801BA IDE U…”我很高興找到這個漫遊，但它不是我的工作，如安裝過程中掛起“檢測硬件...請稍候” ，而“正在加載模塊' piix '為'公司82801BA英特爾的IDE ü ... ”

I’m sorta confused about why you might want to try ubuntu if you have OS X. OS X is like ubuntu with none of the downfalls.我sorta感到困惑，為什麼你可能想嘗試Ubuntu的如果您有OS X操作系統OS X是與像Ubuntu的任何見於。
Tried installing twice.試圖安裝了兩次。 Hung up at 90%- Detecting Hardware “Loading module ‘piix’ for ‘Intel Corporation 82801BA IDE U…”洪在90 ％ -檢測硬件“正在加載模塊' p iix'為'公司8 2801BA英特爾的I DEü . ..”
Thanks for the effort of putting this together though.感謝您的努力，把這一共同的。 I’ll give VMware Fusion a shot.我給VMware的融合了一槍。
I was getting stuck repeatedly at “detecting hardware… please wait” while “Loading module ‘piix’ for ‘Intel Corp 82801BA IDE U�” and was about to give up.我多次被陷在“檢測硬件...請稍候” ，而“正在加載模塊' piix '為'公司82801BA英特爾的IDE U ”計劃和即將放棄。 I noticed, however, that whenever it hung at 15% during the install it also seemed to hang later (I had a couple of bad attempts b/c I hadn’t given it enough drive space).我注意到，但是，只要掛在15 ％在安裝它似乎也掛起後（我有一對夫婦的不良企圖二/三我還沒有給它足夠的硬盤空間） 。 I tried again this morning and it didn’t hang up at 15% and then also got through the HW detect, so it seems like you may be able to watch for that and at least save some time by exiting w/o waiting for it to hang at the end.我試圖再次今天上午並沒有掛斷了15 ％ ，然後又通過了老檢測，所以它好像您可以觀看，以及至少節省一些時間，朝W / O型等待掛起結束時。
I was getting the “detecting hardware…please wait…Intel Corp 82801BA…” error.我是讓“檢測硬件...請稍候...英特爾公司82801BA ... ”的錯誤。 I’ve found a couple of workarounds that worked for me:我發現一對夫婦的替代工作，我說：
Setting up Parallels for Ubuntu:建立平行的Ubuntu的：
STEP 2 …select “Typical” instead of “Custom” this got me by the hardware detection hangup every time.第2步...選擇“典型” ，而不是“自定義”這讓我的硬件檢測hangup每一次。
Tidying up and adding sound:整理並添加聲音：
STEP 2…select for OS Version “Other Linux kernel 2.4″ vs. “Other Linux kernel 2.6″.第2步...選取的操作系統版本“其他Linux內核2.4 ”與“其他Linux內核2.6 ” 。 This allowed it to boot past the “ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP” error without hanging at a black screen.這使它能夠引導過去的“ ACPI的：無法找到RSDP ”錯誤沒有掛在黑色畫面。
Like I said, these two changes worked for me and I ran through it a couple of time to make sure it’s repeatable.正如我所說的，這兩個變化工作的我，我跑它通過一對夫婦的時間，以確保它的重複性。
Good Luck!祝您好運！
Additional Info: I should of probably confirmed in my last comment that when you select “typical” instead of “Custom” you still select “Solaris” and “Other Solaris” as the OS and OS Version.附加信息：我要證實的可能我上次評論，當您選擇“典型”而不是“自定義”你仍然選擇“的Solaris ”和“其他的Solaris ”作為操作系統和OS版本。
Additional Info: on Tidying up and adding sound you can use the setting “Other Linux Kernel 2.6″.附加信息：在整理和添加聲音您可以使用設置“其他Linux內核2.6 ” 。
The problem I was experiencing after installing was due to setting the memory to 1gb.這個問題我經歷安裝後，由於設置的內存到1GB 。 This seems to cause a problem.這似乎造成了問題。 Use a setting less then 1gb.設置使用不到1GB的文件。
i’m also having the piix problem (macbook pro core 2 duo).我也有piix問題（ MacBook Pro的酷睿2 ） 。 i followed the directions precisely, including the suggestion of powering on and powering off the virtual machine, but when i power it back on, i don’t get a second chance to install ubuntu.我也跟著精確的方向，包括建議和供電電源關閉虛擬機，但是當我回來權力，我沒有得到第二次機會安裝Ubuntu系統。 instead, it just hangs at “Boot from hard drive…”.相反，它只是掛在“啟動從硬盤驅動器... ” 。 i’ve tried these instructions four times already with no luck.我試過這些指示的4倍已經沒有運氣。
including this attempt, i’ve tried to install linux six times in six years (fedora, suse, ubuntu) on three different machines and i’ve only succeeded once.包括這個企圖，我已經嘗試安裝Linux的6次六年（ Fedora的，公司SUSE ， Ubuntu的）對三種不同的機器和我只成功一次。 it apparently still has a long way to go to reach the average consumer.但它顯然還有很長的路要走達到普通消費者。 i hope that someone finds a reliable workaround for this problem because i’ve heard great things about both ubuntu and parallels.我希望有人找到一個可靠的針對此問題的替代，因為我聽說過偉大的事情都Ubuntu和相似之處。

earl,伯爵，
regarding the “typical” vs. “custom” workaround to the piix problem.關於“典型”與“定制”的替代piix問題。 i gave that a try and it worked, thanks a lot for the tip.我給了一個嘗試和努力，感謝很多的小費。 the interesting thing is that the primary difference between these two methods is that, for me, “typical” automatically allocated 256MB of RAM and 32GB of virtual disk space.有趣的是，主要區別這兩種方法是，對我來說， “典型”自動分配256MB內存和32GB的虛擬磁盤空間。 so perhaps the problem is just not enough virtual disk space.這樣的問題也許僅僅是不夠的虛擬磁盤空間。 previously i’ve only gone as high as 7GB.以前我只去高達7GB 。
Chad,乍得，
Glad the tip worked…I think it’s tied into the amount of memory and virtual disk space.高興冰山的工作...我認為這是捆綁到的內存量和虛擬磁盤空間。 One GB of memory setting causes problems and there may be virtual disk space settings that cause problems as well.一個GB的內存設置問題的原因和可能存在的虛擬磁盤空間的設置，造成問題。
I was having the piix problem as well and found that setting the memory as high as 768MB seems to trigger this.我是有piix問題以及發現的內存設置高推薦768MB似乎觸發此。 I got the install to work with 384MB and then changed the VM to use 512MB.我得到的安裝與384MB ，然後改變了虛擬機使用的512Mb 。 Setting it to 768MB caused the install not to boot.如果設置為推薦768MB造成安裝不開機。 I only use a 5GB image so you can get away with less than the “typical” 32GB.我只使用一個容量的形象，因此您可以逃脫少於“典型”出籠。 Hope this helps.希望這會有所幫助。
I use a 3GB MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo).我使用容量為3GB的MacBook Pro （酷睿2 ） 。 A combination of recommendations from組合的建議 Tom湯姆 and和 Earl厄爾 are spot-on: If I use 512MB (not 768MB), a 5GB image (not 7GB - still using Custom Install vs. Typical), and “Other Linux Kernel 2.4″ (not 2.6) the install works like a charm from start to finish.正在現場的：如果我使用的512Mb （不推薦768MB ） ，有5GB的形象（不7GB -仍然使用自定義安裝與典型） ，以及“其他L inux內核2 .4” （不2 .6）的安裝工程像一個魅力從開始到完成。
Thnx for the guide, you should add the screen resolution trick though. Thnx為指導，你應該添加的屏幕分辨率雖然帽子戲法。
Nice write-up!尼斯寫了！ Thanks for this.感謝。

awesome!可怕的！ i’ve wanted to do this for some time now =)我想這樣做了一段時間= ）
Thanks, these procedures worked perfectly on my 20 inch iMac w/ a GB or RAM, NO PROBLEMS.謝謝，這些程序的工作完全在我的20英寸iMac瓦特/ 1 GB或內存，沒有問題。 Even “copied” my parallels directory to my external “My Book” USB2 drive and it worked.即使是“複製”我的相似之處目錄，我的外部“我的書” USB2驅動器和它的工作。 Again, nicely done - just append those “change video resolution” options and it’s totally complete.同樣，這樣做很好-只是附加那些“改變視頻分辨率”選項，它完全完成。

Any chance of running Beryl?任何機會運行綠柱石？ either on Parallels or VMWare?無論平行或虛擬？
Thnaks for this wonderful tutorial! Thnaks為這個美好的教程！ I got everything running just fine.我一切都運行得很好。 It would be great if you could move the hint about not setting more than 512MB of RAM initially to the top of your document.這將是巨大的，如果你可以移動暗示，不設置以上512MB內存最初的頂部您的文件。
I had no problems at all installing and using your instructions on my Macbook 2Ghz with 2GB RAM.我沒有問題，所有安裝和使用您的指示，我與2GHz的蘋果2GB的內存。 This is my first time using linux and I have to say that for the past several hours I have been amazed at the speed of Ubuntu.這是我第一次使用Linux和我不得不說，在過去的幾個小時我一直感到驚訝的速度Ubuntu Linux系統。 I also use a Windows desktop, which is pretty quick, but Ubuntu on Parallels on my Macbook is just blazingly fast.我還使用Windows桌面，這是相當快，但對Ubuntu的Parallels公司對我的蘋果就是blazingly快。
BTW, the total install time, including a few upgrades that were automatically installed by Ubuntu took only 50 minutes in total.生物及毒素武器的總安裝時間，包括一些升級被自動安裝了Ubuntu的只用了50分鐘的總額。

This is just great..這僅僅是偉大的.. the live vga=790 made it work, otherwise it didn’t boot.現場的VGA = 790工作了，否則它沒有啟動。 Thanks!謝謝！
Had black screen problems also when trying to start machine after successfull installation.有黑色畫面時，問題還嘗試啟動機器後，安裝成功。 Followed instructions from one of the commenters above and all seems well.遵循指示，從一commenters的上述以及一切似乎。
Here is what I did:這裡是我就是這樣做的：
MacBook Pro OSX 10.4.8 MacBook Pro的OSX版10.4.8
1GB/120GB
Installed with latest versions of parallel and ubuntu as at 3rd May 2007安裝了最新版本的並行和Ubuntu截至07年5月3日
=============================================
Having gone to the trouble of partitioning the disk and reinstalling the system and copying files I discovered this site and parallels.在去的麻煩分區的磁盤並重新安裝系統和複製檔案，我發現這個網站，並相似之處。
First time through got all the way to the end and then a persistant black screen, so tried this recommendation:第一次通過了所有的方式結束，然後持續的黑色畫面，所以嘗試這一建議：
First time in I forgot to do Step 2, but did get as far as entering a user id and password before the black screen.第一次在我忘了做第2步，但沒有得到盡可能進入了一個用戶名和密碼之前黑屏。 Stopped and started virtual machine and black screen immediately again.停，並開始虛擬機和黑色畫面立即再次。
Then shut down parallels and restarted, did step 2 (select second Other Linux k, couldn’t see the rest of it) and clicked start arrow again.然後關閉並重新啟動相似之處，但第2步（選擇第二其他Linux鉀，無法看到其他的）並點擊箭頭再次啟動。 Got to log in again and all is well.必須再次登錄和一切都很好。
Frequently, Ubuntu installations hang when they try to reach out to the network during the install.通常情況下， Ubuntu的安裝掛起時，他們試圖接觸到網絡中安裝。 When the live version is started, the network is not necessarily configured (do a ping google.com).當現場的版本開始，網絡不一定是配置（做平google.com ） 。
One solution is to bring up a terminal window and stop and start networking (a restart will not always work).一個解決辦法是把一個終端窗口，並停止和啟動網絡（重新啟動不會總是工作） 。
sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop須藤的/ etc / init.d /網絡站
sudo /etc/init.d/networking start須藤的/ etc / init.d /網絡啟動
crap - that wasn’t it.廢話-這是不是。

Excellent instructions, particularly the reassurance about the black screens and other intermediate glitches. Thanks to you, I was able to test Kerika on Linux.
A number of folks here at Sun tried this and failed, hanging at the “detecting hardware” problem. The way they got past this was to reduce memory allocation to 512MB, and then it works like a champ!
I instead went to VirtualBox, which I am quite hapy with.
David
Great tutorial!
The virtual HDD (point 6 above) however must be set to more than 2 GB (2048 MB). With 2 GB, I would briefly get a warning during the installation process in Ubuntu indicating that I was running short on HDD space, and then the installation process would quit without messages. I reset the size of the virtual HDD to 3GB (3072 MB) and it worked smoothly.
Superb - excellent tutorial thanks. Worked first time, luck me
I’m now totally stuck with getting Parallels-Ubuntu USB working (parallels sees the devices but not ubuntu) - a new tutorial idea? As a knock on effect, I hunted but couldn’t find a way to move files between parallels-ubuntu and osx - tested ideas?
Help!!!!!!
I’ve installaed Ubuntu on my MacBookPro with parallels. After installation, I’ve tried to lunch Desktop Effects.
Now screen in blank and nothing appears.
Does exist a way to turn off Desktop Effects by command (without GUI)? Please, help me….
Here are some tips for file sharing between Ubuntu and Mac OS X.
http://svenand.blogdrive.com/archive/14.html
I have had a problem with some special character like @ or € because it didn’t type tehm. The solution was to enable the “Third level choosers key”; here is how:
go to System->Preferences->Keyboard->Leyout Options
open the third level chooser and check the “press the right Alt key to choose the 3° level”.
I have tested only with the italian layout but it must works with all the layouts and the symbols that you type pressing the Alt key on Mac Os x.
I hope it could be usefull.
This tutorial was a wonderfully problem-free walkthrough. I was having so much trouble getting linux to run on my MBP, I was beginning to think I was just dumb. But I know now that there were a couple slight errors in my setup process, but it works! First try, I’m very excited
thanks!!
I found it interesting that before I bought Parallels, installing a Ubuntu 6.10 VM was easy and worked perfectly. Then I bought the product and tried to install Ubuntu 7.04 and it has been nothing but a bother. That’ll learn me.
Your instructions were great. Any hints on getting shared networking to work. I use Airport on my MacBook Pro. Again, with 6.10 it just worked. With 7.04, it just does not.
I tried changing the settings in System Preferences. Manually setting the IP addresses for Parallels NAT and Host-Guest (which should be the same? different?) got them to green, but still no Internet connectivity for the VM…..
I am a complete beginner. I tried using desktop effects and now my desktop freezes every time gnome launches. I was wondering if there was anyway to change the settings or reset gnome to default from the terminal. If someone could give step by step instructions I would be really grateful. I don’t want to reinstall.
I just did it! Now the Macbook is a robust development system which has OSX (duh!), Vista, XP, and Linux to boot. Thanks alot for this guide
awesome, works like a charm!
ok so i tried installing ubuntu 7.04 i followed everything step by step, but i just get stuck at the “piix Intel 82801BA IDE” part i stopped it and tried installing again but still doesn’t work like it said on top. Anyone have a solution?
also when i press stop and start again it just hangs at the start up screen saying boot from hard drive …
Everything worked great, but now I can’t get Ubuntu to recognize my CD drive. I just get an error:
“special device /dev/scd0 does not exist”
Any ideas?
BTW, thanks for this great tutorial.
Thank you so much for this guide. Im sure i wil be using it when i get my macbook in the near future. But i did have one question, If i want to install Fedora 6 can i still follow these exact steps (even selecting solaris in the beggining) to get it to work?
Thx so much im glad someone has time to help all of us out =]
Clay
Thanks for an excellent HOWTO. Unfortunately I never got past the “piix Intel 82801BA IDE” part and got stuck there. So I had to give up installing Ubuntu 7.04 using parallels build 3188 on my imac 24.
For those in the same situation, use VMWare Fusion instead and scrap parallels. Installing Ubuntu 7.04 on vmware went like a dream with no problems nor any workarounds necessary.
Hey - whomever did this - thank you so much.
Perfectly executed tutorial (this comment from someone who writes many of them). Thanks for posting this up!
thanks, this helped me alot!
Couldn’t have been easier…thanks to your guide. No problems (other than those you walked us through).
EXCELLENT GUIDE!!!
I couldn’t get past the detecting hardware stall…
I found a posting that said to keep the allocated RAM to less than 512 MB. I did this an had a smooth install on a Macbook Pro. Great instructions otherwise!!
I keep getting the hqanging at “piix Intel 82801BA IDE”. I did what you said and clicked the red square icon in the right column of Parallels Desktop, and power it back on (the green arrow). When I press the GREEN button it loads and sticks on the BIOS menu and seems it cant find the CD even if its connected. I have tried this 6 times with no luck.
Never mind.. Putting the memory @ 500MB worked! Thanks!!!
Will this install also work with Ubuntu-Studio 7?
Can I “link” Macintosh HD to the Parallel?

This describes my problem exactly.
I trying to set up ubundu ore Kubundu so I can test the LinuxMCE before I start building machines around it in my home.
There comes another problem, I can not connect the ISO (to become CD/DVD) images for the LinuxMCE ore the openSUSE 10.2 (i386).
when starting ubuntu for the first time i get the error message ” Your CPU does not support long mode. Use 32bit distribution” I am using teh same setup as the author..any ideas what i can do
Glenn -
It sounds like you might have downloaded the 64bit version of Ubuntu - what’s the exact name of the file you downloaded?
Regarding the “piix Intel 82801BA IDE” issue, it seems that 500MB is the magic number for the macbook. It works for me too.
Thanks!
thank you for this tutorial! for weeks ive been trying to get feisty to boot under parallels. the cdrom boot screen shows but then it goes black and never returns. by using the Solaris setting it still went black (no progress bar) but eventually booted into X windows. yea!
Great tutorial.
As a note, this also works for Xubuntu (bit faster response time on a Macbook because the window manager is faster).
I disabled network in the lower toolbar of Parallels and it seemed to work better when getting to the install desktop screen (though maybe it would have worked with network if I would have left it alone for longer and just waited for it to boot).
Critical pieces for Xubunutu:
(1) The solaris trick (see text of article).
(2) Waiting along time when the progress bar seemed to stop at about 10% when going side to side.
For those with the new (Santa Rosa) MacBook Pros:
You won’t need to do the Solaris workaround (just select Linux and Ubuntu), BUT you still do need to specify 500MB for the memory.
The sound is detected automatically too.
A question, but first my thanks - great tute. My problem is that my system hangs at Step 11 (after loading 50-ish%). I turned off the VM in order to restart it, but now it won’t restart properly, hanging on “boot from hard drive…” even though I’ve got the ISO selected to boot from. Repeated turning VM off/on makes no diff.
Any advice? Many thanks,
Ken.
Problem solved - please ignore my above post - seems I got fooled by the issue of transparent progress bars (should’ve read the above posts first!). I did have to set up a new VM and start from scratch, though. The first one was completely non-responsive after an abortive attempt. Thanks all. K
MacPro 2.66, Parallels3.0 Build 4128
I also got the ‘piix Intel 82801BA IDE’ hang and stopping and restarting did not seem to work but trashing the Parallels created files, starting from scratch again but setting memory to 500 MB as Pedro in comment 122 said, let the complete install finish. I did not seem to get a chance to put live vga=790 anywhere, the screen went garbled for awhile, then finally the proper Ubuntu desktop displayed. The subsequent install completed, and restart without the iso available completed nicely. That’s as far as I’ve gotten, Ubuntu is waiting for me to enter a username, oh yeah, now I remember what I told it during the install, yep, I’m in!. Thx, great instructions.

hi,
i would like to know how to install ubuntu parallel with windows XP?
i want to know how can i keep windows XP n ubuntu together in my hdd. it means that whenever i want to use windows i can windows or else i can use ubuntu?
please do help me.i would like to have an answer.i would be glad that to know to pictorial presentation like for Mac.
would be waiting for your reply.
Thanks a lot mate, I have tryed from other websites, but with screen shots its much easier.
I wanted to boot with ubuntu instead of macosx but its still to hard to make it.
Thanks
I got stuck at the “piix Intel 82801BA IDE” stage as well but when I restarted parallels (red square then green arrow), it keeps hangung up on the boot from hard drive… screen
Any ideas
The problem with the install hangup at “piix Intel 82801BA IDE” has to do with RAM/Memory that has been assigned to the virtual machine. This tutorial suggests using 768 MB. If you set it instead to 512MB the install should work properly.
This has something to do with the memory use restrictions for paralles/Ubuntu. For more details visit:
http://forum.parallels.com/thread12670.html
Search the page for post #16, “Success! The problem was somethign to do with RAM allocation…”
Nice tutorial. Thanks for sharing
Hey great tutorial. Was able to quickly setup Ubuntu through parallels.
However I’m running into a problem: I can’t seem to get desktop effects to work. Everytime I attempt to use them (or run Beryl) the system hangs on a white/blank screen. I believe it has to do with video drivers, but having said that, I have visited another website which said something about accessing ‘restricted drivers manager’, but when I go there, it says my hardware does not require restricted drivers. I’m lost.
I have a 2ghz MB w/ 1gb ram (512 allocated to Ubuntu).
Perfect man, thanks! Was doing this the Parallels way with plenty headaches! That Solaris trick was key - now I can try this out and see if I want to put it on my home PC! Now to figure out how to set the correct time lol!
PS I too get the white screen when trying desktop effects - have to do a restart it
Good walk through but do you have one for build 4128 i still get a crc error and the kernal scrams???
I followed this guide. While good, I was still pulling my hair out for two days. What finally did it was to set everything to “Linux”, “Ubuntu”, and install the Parallels tools. (Getting to a terminal was tricky though as the screen was hosed in graphics mode, but if you do this from the start you should be OK.)
One of the key things is that it doesn’t seem to work with RAM>512. The Parallels tools install also set the video RAM to the lowest setting, 4mb–not sure if that matters but I’m leaving it. Also, don’t after installing the Parallels tools, it grays out the resolution settings in the host config screen–just leave it that way, you no longer need it
The result now is the Ubuntu desktop dynamically resizes with it’s host window–very cool! It didn’t do that before. Switching to full screen also makes it completely full screen. Hope this helps! I hope you read this comment first, rather than last out of desperation!
these instructions are perfect. thank you so much.
RE: I’m getting the same error as Wim. Once I start to install it, the screen stays black. Any ideas? I’m on a MB Core Duo 2GB.
Comment by Pratik — April 28, 2007 @ 11:56 am
Hi there, i had the same thing…
The only thing i had to do was changing the resolution to highest in the list (in the install menu)..
Good luck with it ;)..
Most excellent, job well done!
It’s by far the best tutorial I have found for this particular task.

I have Ubuntu 6.06.1 burned onto a disk and a MacBook. How do I boot Ubuntu off of the disk if I just want to try it out before I set it up as a parallel?
Has anyone had trouble with display not starting. Mine install tried 6 times and then shut down. Tried it twice with two different downloads.
right on… Follow the instructions exactly and it worked. Thanks for the post.
Parallels seems to have a problem with clean installs of Ubuntu 7.10 that causes it to barf when switching display settings (like what Rich describes above). I was having the same problem, but followed “Sidney’s” directions at the bottom of this page…
http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=17069&page=3
…and it seemed to work ok for me.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I was having problems getting Ubuntu 7.10 to work with Parallels 3.0 on Leopard. I could not get round the “Intel 82801″ hang. I did as your tutorial suggested.. Switched to Solaris, reduced the memory to 512M… and away we go!
Slight variances I had… When you instruct to restart Ubuntu.. mine actually does and so I then have to shut it down again to do the changes you mention. Also, the Parallels settings start out with the CDROM image on virtual IDE 0:0. Therefore I had to switch that to IDE0:1 so it could see the boot ‘hard’ disc.
Thank you (and the other contributors) so much.
Wow…. Thank you so much. Yes, this is exactly what I needed.
So I successfully got it installed following the instructions and reducing the memory to 512 MB, but I really need more than 512 and increasing it to 768 or 1 GB after install causes the boot to just hang. Has anyone found a solution for this?
thank u for this post
already i try it
awesome walk through… my friend really needed this. thnx.
