This gives a good example of how to install Ubuntu on a mac: http://www.howtogeek.com/187410/how-to-install-and-dual-boot-linux-on-a-mac/

Mac boot camp, only works for windows, it will refuse to go forward without a usable windows disk. Do not fret though because there are easy work arounds to get Ubuntu or any linux distro on your mac. The above URL is a pretty good step by step instruction on how to install Ubuntu without having to worry about bootcamp.

  • Bootcamp doesn't help to install Linux, it's Windows only! Right when you open it, it asks for Windows ISO otherwise it won't go forward. – Maziyar Feb 22 '16 at 18:12
  • Okay, you are right, I forgot how the actual steps went since it has been a while since I have had a mac. In that case just use the second URL to install linux on a mac. So I'll change my answer to show that. – Caperneoignis Feb 22 '16 at 18:18
