But I also like to get use out of old kit that be given a new lease on life. My old MacBook Air (model A1466) is a case in point as it&rsquo;s no longer supported by the latest version of MacOS. I&rsquo;ve installed Arch Linux on it so I can use it with up-to-date software and this post publishes the notes and tips I captured during that journey. I also cover an approach to encrypting data at rest. I hope that this post will help others with the quirks and hardware challenges I ran into.</p>
