[QUOTE="breNTx22, post: 913918, member: 121274"] The goal for me is to have Mac OS, Ubuntu, and Windows 7 bootable on my MBP. Ideally i'd like to have it where it boots up Mac OS by default, unless I hit "option" at boot then it will let me pick between Mac OS, Ubuntu, and Win7. I think this is possible but since i'm new to mac i'm not sure. Where i'm at now is I used bootloader to repartition my hard drive, I then made the windows partition and installed that. Once Win7 was setup I used "Wubi" to install Ubuntu. I couldn't get Ubuntu to load with that method. So I put in the Ubuntu CD and resized my Windows Partition and then installed Ubuntu on the freshly created space borrowed from the windows partition. Now unfortunately when I turn my MBP on and hit option the only selection I get is for Mac OS. Can anyone offer some assistance on this? Thanks [/QUOTE]
