Looks like it is the macbook 1,1. IIRC it has a pre-standardized EFI
implementation in 32-bit, don't remember if the laptop itself is 32- or
64- bit. Personally I would try it with Debian's special mac-installer
image first to see if that happens to boot up.

Does this laptop still have the original BIOS/EFI implementation or has
it perchance been replaced with libreboot?
