I'm trying to install Ubuntu 19.10 on my laptop:

  • Model: Macbook Air 11" (early 2015)
  • SSD: APPLE SSD AP0128H (128 GB; PCI-Express)
  • Current SO: MacOS 10.15.3 (Catalina)

At the step of selecting the disk to install, my SSD is not shown. Neither Gparted nor Fdisk can recognize it. I thought the problem was the Ubuntu version, so I tried since the 14 to 19, but any version worked.
Then I tried with other distributions, like Fedora, ArchLinux or Debian, but these didn't recognize it, as well. Only Deepin can recognize my SSD, but I don't want to install deepin. I was looking into the Deepin iso a driver for my SSD to copy it into the Ubuntu iso, but I don't know where the drivers are placed.

This isn't the first time I tried to install Ubuntu on my Macbook. A year ago I installed it with no problem, but this year is not working.

PS: My native language is not English, so I beg you to understand that my grammar couldn't be perfect. In a last post, a user criticized my grammar. Also, it's a little bit hard to describe my problem in other language.
Thank you.



Update:
I tried to access to my bios settings to change the RAID to AHCI, but I don't know how to do that on Mac.
I have the same problem like this post.

If anyone stumbles across the same issue as described by Saúl, I solved it by adding intel_iommu=off in the live cd kernel options (at boot time).
