Ubuntu LTS on MacBook Pro 2017 (A1707, MBP 14,3)(T1 chip)

Summary

Notes to install Ubuntu 22.04.4LTS (Upgraded to 24.04LTS) up and running on my 2017 MacBook Pro 15 inch (MacBookPro14,3).

Now everything except the TouchID (Fingerprint), Suspend and Hibernation seems to work for me.

About Ubuntu 24.04LTS: I tried to install Ubuntu 24.04 and didn't have success. There was a crash issue during installation. https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity/+bug/2065310 But I installed 22.04 and upgraded it to the 24.04LTS later and it working same as 22.04.4.

CLI-Tool for download Huggingface models and datasets with aria2/wget: hfd

🤗Huggingface Model Downloader

Note

(2025-01-08) Add feature for 🏷️Tag(Revision) Selection, contributed by @Bamboo-D.
(2024-12-17) Add feature for ⚡Quick Startup and ⏭️Fast Resume, enabling skipping of downloaded files, while removing the git clone dependency to accelerate file list retrieval.

Considering the lack of multi-threaded download support in the official huggingface-cli, and the inadequate error handling in hf_transfer, This command-line tool leverages curl and aria2c for fast and robust downloading of models and datasets.

Features

  • ⏯️ Resume from breakpoint: You can re-run it or Ctrl+C anytime.
