I've just installed Ubuntu 20.10 on an iMac 2009. I removed HighSierra totally.It was pretty straight forward.

  • I downloaded the ISO
  • I created a USB key with balenaEtcher under HighSierra
  • I rebooted with Alt key pressed and chose the USB key as the boot volume (i.e.: "EFI Boot" instead of "Macintosh HD")
  • I followed these instructions for single boot and voilà!

I could even run Try Ubuntu before installing it.
Everything worked right out of the box. (except my mouse cursor issue)
