I installed Windows XP and Ubuntu and OSX on my laptop with a single drive. Its a 74 gig drive.

I gave windows 50 gig, ubuntu 12 gig, 1 gig swap for linux and 11.52 for osx.

 

I wanted the partition to be larger so I shortened the windows and ubuntu partitions with gparted.

 

Gparted would not do anything with the HFS+ I could not expand it or shorten it so I deleted it and formated it fat32.

 

I had previously booted with the mac dvd and used disk utility to image the partition to an external device.

I booted with it once again and restored the image to the partiton after I did an erase on the partiton and made it HFS+

All when well but when I try to select the OSX from the boot menu I get

 

"Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"

 

I have messed with grub a lil bit and I am getting nowhere.

 

Here is my Menu.lst
