seangibbz Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I was planning on making a triple boot with the following: Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Mac OS X Leopard Ubuntu 8.10 I was gonna get a Dell Studio 15 with the following: ATI Radeon 3450 Video Card 4GB RAM (At Least) Bluetooth /w BlueTooth travel mouse intel core 2 duo 2.5 GHz Processor From what I understand, I get the newest OSX x86 CD, boot it, repartition my system into 3 parts, 1 Mac Journaled, 1 NTSC, 1 EXT3. I install OSX, with intel, on the journaled part. Then restart with Windows install CD in the drive, install on NTSC part, then lastly, install Ubuntu on the EXT3. Also I should add the MAC OSX title to the GRUB Menu. And I plan on installing GNU GRUB. Does this sound right? Also, what patches would I need and how would I get them. I know a ATI 3450 Driver is in the works, but I've heard of these things called kexts. What are they, and how do they work? Would I need any?

I was able to use EasyBCD 1.7.2 in Vista by partitioning the OS X HDD/volumes as MBR/Mac OS Extended (Journaled)....you can also try EasyBCD 2.0 Beta....

bigpoppa206 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 What would be easiest sounds like a job for the new Chameleon 2.0 coming out soon. Use google to search for their site.
