tried this, http://howtoubuntu.o...ubuntu-live-cd/

gave me

/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: File system `ext2' doesn't support embedding.
/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: error: will not proceed with blocklists.

I can't believe there ins't a simple GUI installer that just asks you where you want to install and installs it, sheesh. I'm gonna loose my mind trying to figure this out.

think i got it figured out just started over and formated the hdd and reparitioned, except this time when installing linux i told it to install grub to the actualy linux parition instead of mbr of the main/fisrt drive/ssd. Also has to install HFS tools on lvie cd so gpatered could make an HFS partition. Now all is well, i got it donw to a science and could make a guide if i wanted.

Now i just need to figure out how to make it so i DON'T need to press f8 for boot option and get rid of the excess boot options.
