And as a result, every boot followed the firmware flash procedure because apparently, the flash flag (wherever that might be) stayed set: Long wait with a black screen -> Power light starts flashing -> A horrible beep -> Wait some more -> Start the boot process What i know for sure is, that my macbook wanted to flash a firmware afterwards. I don’t know exactly what happened and why, but the installation from that daily disk didn’t finish on the one hand and didn’t let me specify the location where to install grub (i did find it out later on using the right disc). So i went on and downloaded the daily version assuming it would be the same.

THIS CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!! As I needed to reflash a Unibody MacBook 5,1 (Late ’08), I downloaded the package for it (MB51.007D.003 (EFI 1.3)), unpkged it and located my firmware in the app ( MacBook EFI Firmware Update.app/Contents/MB51_007D_03B_LOCKED.scap).
