Hello everyone!
New user to the linux world, have always tried many distros but always have ended up back into the Apple ecosystem which I am a huge fan of, especially macOS. But now I have decided to move for real and I have been distro hopping a little bit, started with elementaryOS, now at opensuse leap which will be discontinued in the future, so I am looking elsewhere and really like Mageia, but the installtion process seem pretty complicated.
My device; iMac (2017 I think)
intel core i5-7360U CPU @2.30 Hz
intel irus plus graphics 640
I have a 125GB usb stick, fully formatted it to fat32 and used dd to burn the iso into my usb stick. Then i restarted and when I try to boot into mageia by pressing the option key (how you do it in a mac), I don't see my usb stick/drive listed (can only see default EFI which has opensuse right now), I don't understand why this isn't working. First time I used Unetbootin, which I later figured it isn't supported, but then I re-did the whole thing and used dd, why is it not working now??
Please help, been with this for hours, any help asap would be appreciated. Keep in mind I am still a inexperienced user to the linux world, so please explain it to me as I am a 5 year old.
