Looking for dual booting in Macs I found that: http://www.rodsbooks.com/ubuntu-efi/index.html

To install pd-extended, you need run the command: sudo apt-get install pd-extended

I don't test Shumamis in Mac.. Please give me a feedback! ;)

Sorry... Reply all...
Ok.. Shumamis don't have Ardour pre installed, I use it in music and tecnology workshops I do.
To install ardour:
Press Ctrl+Alt+T , it will open terminal.
run in terminal: sudo apt-get install ardour3
it is!

cool, so it seems I dont need to bother with "hardcore configuring" using a "not so easy one" like slackware? I'll give this Shumamis a try, but I don't see ardour there though. Did you install this on a mac? I'm downloading the 64 bit version. I got a previous generation macbook air. Dual core i7 1.8GHz. 4GB Ram
cheers

Maybe I can be wrong, but to work with pd in realtime performances you will need a kernel patched with rt features. At least low-latency kernel.
I'm start to do a little distro (Ubuntu 12.04.2 based) it in portuguese. You can try it. Shumamis Linux Light have included with qtractor DAW and Ardour 3 is very easy to install. http://shumamisll.tumblr.com/
This distro is a remaster of a DreamStudio: http://www.dickmacinnis.com/dreamstudio/
If you don't like Unity windows manager, you can use KXstudio: http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/
All these distros use KXStudio repositories, and have low-latency kernels preconfigured. If you need a realtime kernel, you can install easily. All these 3 distros are Ubuntu 12.04 LTS based.
With Jack, at now, I don't have problems using Shumamis Linux Light.
