The GoboLinux-014pre20071010.iso boots on my macbook.
When I run startx and KDE starts I get an artsmessage that says:

Error while initializing the sound driver:
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or directory)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

The resolution is not the native 1280x800, but that has been pointed
out before I think.

When I install it I can't get it to boot, GRUB stays at Loading stage2..
