    MBP shuts off IP/TB when the lid is closed

    I’m repurposing my old Intel MBP (15” 2016, first gen with touchbar) as a headless server. The plan is to turn off WiFi, BT and connect to my M1 Pro MBP using IP over Thunderbolt and Internet Sharing.

    Headless M1 Mac Mini Question(s)

    Install OS X via Terminal

    Hey folks, I'm away from my home setup for a while but upgraded my new 12" 1.33 iBook to a SSD. Problem now is that I have no FW drive around, no USB stick and the DVD drive isn't working :D The only thing I have is a BlackBook, a 10.5 dmg and a FW cable. So I thought it should be possible to...
