I also have another question that might have been asked alot but What is the best method to triple boot Windows XP, Windows Vista RS1, and OSX? THanks in advance for the help everyone.

You should read the WIKI or g00gle for this phrase: osx86 10.4.7 HCL

 

This will show you a semi-up-to-date chart for hardware that works with or without fixes.

 

As for triple boot:

Install winxp pro, then partition magic.

Create partition for vista and UNFORMATTED and UNALLOCATED parition fos OSx86. Install vista to vista partition and double check winxp and vista. When both are working, then insert your osx86 dvd and install osx86 to your UNFORMATTED and UNALLOCATED partition. Boot into winxp using partition magic and make OSX partition (AF TYPE) ACTIVE.

 

Once done all that, reboot and you will be able to use the OSX bootloader:

Press F8 during boot. You will see:

 

0:0 = winxpp

0:1 = vista

0:2 = osx86

 

Pick 0:0 to boot to winxp OR vista

 

How it works? OSx86 bootloader reads all OSes.

0:2 = osx no problem there

BUT

0:1 = no bootloader found (but don't worry)

0:0 = winxp (but when pressed it will give you VISTA bootloader)

 

Older version of windows

Windows Vista

 

Pick one and go have fun!

Might not be the cleanest method but works!

you will be able to use the OSX bootloader:

Press F8 during boot.

You shouldn't have to press F8 to get the bootloader. Add the following to your boot.plist:

<key>Timeout</key>

<string>10</string>

Thanks guys for the help
