do you still recommend a new battery?
When MacBooks are plugged in, they get their power from the charger. They are not simultaneously draining and charging the battery in general.
so when the battery is fully loaded a controller tells the mobo to stop loading the battery and to use power from the charger to simply power the notebook, is this so?
If you’re gonna use Linux then go ahead and replace the battery so that you’re not worrying about it failing miserably to communicate with the charge controller or battery itself and tell you when telhe thing is fucked and need replacing.
I’m already using linux, macos was nuked.
I don’t understand this paragraph. Do you mean new batteries for this model (macbook pro from 2014) work better with linux?
in recovery mode as root I executed:
mount -o remount,rw /
mount --all
then cd’ed to /media/home, ls’ed and got no results.
I also don’t know if changes to make the system writable are made on the go or if I have to reboot. I rebooted and the system is still in read only mode.
ETA: another command that might be relevant:
dpkg --configure -a
returns
error processing package install-info (–configure), installed install-info package post installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127
