Does Trisquel 8 support text install on Macs? My Macbook Pro is a 17" Mid-2010 model.
What happens if you remove the USB?

How bizarre -- remove the usb installer during mid installation?! Its stuff like this that keeps the majority of people away from Linux... I will just try again using a CD.
What is involved in fixing this for way upstream? I doubt I have the coding skills to fix it myself.

Yeah, it's a weird one. I had run into an issue the graphical installer
on Macbooks where I'd get a grub error when connected to the internet. I
wonder if there's something odd about the SSDs used in some Macbooks.

If you made it through the entire install process and the only step that
failed was installing grub, you might be able to fix your system without
reinstalling. As per this thread,[1] boot into a Trisquel live session
and run
$ sudo fdisk -l
to list all devices. Use the size to figure out which is which. (For me,
/dev/sda is usually the USB stick and /dev/sdb the SSD, but it may be
different in your case.)
Then, install grub onto the SSD
sudo grub-install /dev/[name of the SSD in the fdisk output]

If it's already been fixed in Debian or Ubuntu then it might be possible
to find the relevant issue and backport the situation.
I
found the time to attempt another text install of the trisquel 8 iso
after having completely wiped my drive to make sure i was installing
100% clean. i was able to install without issues using the cd installer
in text mode. however, after i reboot my system is stuck during startup
at:
/scripts/init-premount/plymouth: line 38: /sbin/plymouthd: not found
/scripts/init-premount/plymouth:line 38: /bin/plymouth: not found
/dev/sda2: clean, 63170/60989440 files, 4134501/243940096 blocks
/scripts/init-bottom/plymouth: line 18: /bin/plymouth: not found
... Any idea how I can proceed here?

Use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch to a TTY. After you install a display manager
this won't be an issue.
