It seems surprisingly easy when reading this page https://wiki.debian.org/MacMiniIntel
- debian-8.6.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso.
- I am installing on this Macmini 3,1.
- The internal DVD "Superdrive" would not accept the freshly burned DVD so i attached my external USB DVD and that worked... Apple optical drives suck ;-)
- Non free firmware (b43/ucode11.fw) is needed to make the wireless NIC work according to the install dvd. I opted to not supply this during DVD install.
