Let's talk about Asahi Linux here. I'll start off with a question: how do I remove all those diagnostics from when AL boots (e.g. u-boot stuff, etc), and only leave the AL's logo on the screen?

Hi I have a MacBook and am thinking of using Bootcamp and installing Ubuntu Linux software in the hope that it may be able to read a few external hard drives that I cannot currently read using Mac and Windows 10 software. I sent off four drives and my local computer store said they tried...
