OmnipotentIdiot Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I have 3 seperate drives that I'd like to get a triple boot setup. Drive 1 :500GB - OSX 10.6.4 Drive 2 :1.5TB - Windows 7 Ultimate Drive 3 :160GB - Ubuntu 10.04 I have OSX running beautifully using the Lifehacker guide (EP45-UD3P,9800 GTX,C2Quad) , and I can boot into windows 7,but the bootloader will not recognize the Ubuntu install. I get this: (sorry for the image quality,I'm still using an IPhone 2G) The Windows 7 shows up as "System Reserved" and when I try to boot into the "Windows NTFS" drive,I just get a "bootldr is missing" error. Can I edit the Stella bootmanager and point it in the right direction? Or do I need to delete the linux install and re-install it again?

oldtopman Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Try the Chameleon bootloader instead. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/227927-need-help-with-a-triple-boot-setup/#findComment-1530237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmnipotentIdiot Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 Try the Chameleon bootloader instead. I am (was) Chameleon 2 rc3,now I have a new problem I reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 on the 160gb drive and now I cant even get to my previous bootloader screen. It keeps hanging at a "verifying DMI pool data" problem. I even select my OSX as the first boot device in the bios,in fact nothing should have changed in the bios. Help !!!!

OmnipotentIdiot Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 thank you everyone for NOT helping me. I am deleting my account and seek help else where because I can not get any guidance from the so called "experts" here.
