But if dual booting with Windows you must first install AHCI drivers into Windows or it will not boot. Often better to have UEFI Secure boot off. And UEFI fast boot off, as that assumes no system changes & you are changing system. Newer systems need legacy off to boot in UEFI mode. Select File-Install Licenses (Windows/Linux). On OSX there is no File menu option. On OSX, start the License Administrator and go to the License Administrator menu (top left) and select Install Licenses. Enter your licensing login ID and the password. You will see a list of licenses to which you are entitled.

There might be some problems with the bootloader, but it can be overcome easily. Just a warning: some hardware functionality might never work right under Ubuntu. Here are the steps to install and dual boot Ubuntu on Mac. Linux Multi Booting. And OSX uses Universal Time. It is retained for backward compatibility and the 99.9% of people that don't dual boot and would be confused.
Make sure that your computer meets our System Requirements.
Intel or AMD x64 CPU with SSE 4.2 required. Houdini 17.0 will not run on a system with an instruction set lower than SSE 4.1.
Do you have Nahimic or 3D audio drivers installed? Or 3D audio software installed? Please uninstall or disable them.
Asus Sonic Suite 2, the audio card software that comes with a lot of Asus ROG mainboards, seems to also be a culprit.
If you have any 3D audio drivers, please uninstall them or disable them.
We no longer provide Qt4 builds for Houdini 17.0.
Other things to try:Try deleting (or renaming) your houdini17.0 preferences directory. When you relaunch Houdini this directory will be regenerated, with all your Houdini settings at default. If you have an older version of Houdini, you will delete or rename the directory for that older version (for example, houdini16.5).
Dual Boot Osx And Linux Operating System
Windows: My Documents->houdini17.0
OSX: /Users/(your name)/Library/Preferences/houdini/17.0
Linux: /home/(your name)/houdini17.0
Qt4 builds for versions older than Houdini 17.0: WindowsMacLinux
If this doesn't help and Houdini stays open long enough, can you please send the support team your machine info from Houdini's Help -> About Houdini -> click on 'Show Details'. Please click the 'save” button at the bottom, and send the file to support@sidefx.com.
I'm using rEFInd as my boot loader. My setup consisted of a separate BTRFS /boot partition (/dev/sdb4: with the main contents in the @boot subvolume) to be mounted at /boot, refind_linux.conf, etc., a BTRFS root partition (/dev/sdb5: with the main contents in the @ subvolume), and an EFI partition (/dev/sdb1) to be mounted at /efi. So far, rEFInd was booting Arch (and Windows, since I have a dual-boot config) correctly.
I decided to encrypt my root partition. I did it using cryptsetup's reencrypt command to make it a LUKS2 partition. I verified (in a live USB) that I can open the container and mount my BTRFS partition as before. However, rEFInd is now simply hanging when it starts. I can't even see the list of OSes.
The only changes I made after the encryption are:
Dual Boot Osx And Linux Virtualbox
Add the sd-encrypt hook in mkinitcpio.conf
Change the kernel parameters in refind_linux.conf
Run `mkinitcpio -P`
Run `refind-install`
I don't know why rEFInd isn't even showing up. In text mode, it just hangs at 'rEFInd: Initializing', without throwing any errors.
EDIT: I installed GRUB (alongside rEFInd), and it works perfectly. Seems like it's a rEFInd issue.
`lsblk -f` output (as seen from a live USB):
mkinitcpio.conf:
refind_linux.conf:
refind.conf:
