[QUOTE="dcow, post: 999021, member: 139944"] I use this setup. Just make sure you install Windows before Linux. 1) Install Windows with Bootcamp 2) Install reFIT 3) Install Linux by booting from the cd. Put grub on the 'root' of the partition map. (I have grub on my linux partition, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, usually it doesn't and when it doesn't there's a long tedious process of 'fixing' grub that is not fun.) The only disadvantage of putting grub on the root partition is that anytime you ant to boot to windows you'll have to do it through grub. (so it's like a dual + 1 boot setup since you have to deal wit two bootloaders) [/QUOTE]
