Our current macOS (still called OS X) dual boot criterion says:

I suggest renaming "OS X" to "macOS" in the section title and in
the
criterion text. That reflects the name change that Apple did in the past.
I also suggest adding this footnote:
"Footnote: Supported hardware
This criterion only covers Mac devices with an Intel x86_64 processor."
That makes it explicit that we don't support the latest ARM-based M<number>
custom processors, nor the older PowerPC-based devices. I originally wanted
to link to some official Fedora requirements, but we don't seem to have any
(for Macs), so at least a footnote here.
Thoughts?
+1 to those changes, makes sense.
I am not sure 100% of intel macs are supported either however.
I have a macbook here with the touchbar thing and last I tried it,
fedora will boot, but the keyboard doesn't work at all. That was like a
year or so ago tho, so I should try again. ;)
