The internal ssd, camera, mic, and the keyboard/trackpad work out of the box. WiFi and Bluetooth work with some extra steps. Read this for information about the latest hardware support.

This kernel is usually at the same version as the stable Fedora kernel. It is currently built for Fedora 38.

Instalation

Download the live ISO from here. Follow the installation guide.

WiFi/Bluetooth

Follow the firmware guide. When you get to the On Linux section, you can just run firmware.sh.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The touchbar is not working and is blank
Solution: Reboot into MacOS Recovery by holding command+r while booting up, then reboot into Fedora again.

Problem: Suspend is not working
Solution: Put this in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/rmmod_wifi.sh:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
if [ "${1}" = "pre" ]; then
        modprobe -r brcmfmac_wcc
        modprobe -r brcmfmac
elif [ "${1}" = "post" ]; then
        modprobe brcmfmac
fi

Building from source
