DennisOS2 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Breaking into Linux (openSUSE 10.2 64bit) and MAC at the same time. I'm trying to get everything to work off the same drive. Here's the set-up: XP in C: Vista in D: MAC in E: OpenSUSE in a logical partition. Using GRUB as the loader. Menu selections: SUSE 10.2 MAC OSX Windows When I select Windows, it goes to the Windows loader where XP or Vista can be selected ......... both work fine. Of course, SUSE works fine. When you select MAC, nothing happens. GRUB loader statement: blockoffset=1, chainloader=/dev/sda3, noverifyroot, root= (it is set to activate the MAC partition when starting MAC.) ERROR Message: HFS+ Partition Error Has anyone been able to boot MAC OSX using GRUB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
