verdant Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 The question is very simple.. to dual boot using grub, should I install ubuntu first? or OSX first? I want to dual boot with ubuntu and osx Personally, I would go with Ubuntu (I prefer the flexibility of the Ubuntu Alternate Install Cd too....e.g. LVM) because of being able to use the GRUB bootloader to boot into OSX.....I would set up static boot volume /boot ext3 on a primary partition, with /root, /home and swap on a logical volume via LVM, and a secondary primary FAT32 volume which can be split into two volumes, one for OS X (via MBR) and one for a shared data volume for OS X and Ubuntu.....
