Dual Boot – Leopard and Ubuntu

2 04 2008

I chose to run Windows as a VM but OS X and Ubuntu ready for my work.

1. Install Boot Camp Assistant and get Boot Camp to partition for you.

2. Next install REFIt, then do an enable.sh

3. After the partition process has been completed by Boot Camp, it’s time to install Ubuntu.

4. Boot up with Ubuntu Live CD, go through the normal steps but select Manual at the Partitioning screen. By default /dev/sda3 is the chosen partition for installs.

5. Install to /dev/sda3, and when you get to the bootloader section, select /dev/sda3 as where Linux should boot to.

6. Reboot and REFIt SHOULD detect the linux partition.

I’ll do another entry on updating the ATI drivers the next time. CBB to do it now.
