Separate or same drive?Hi, thanks for the info.
My system is already running Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 10 and now I want to add OSX to the bunch. You stated that you had to installed Ubuntu after OSX. Is there a possibility to keep my installations and just add OSX to the existing installations or do I have to reinstall Ubuntu? Also, when I boot my current system, I actually get the Ubuntu OS loader, where Ubuntu is the default system and only if I scroll down to the Windows Boot manager it actually boots into Windows. Do you think it would be possible to add OSX to the Ubuntu Boot loader at all or do I have to start from scratch?
If separate drive, install Mac OS on a new, blank drive. Install boot loader of choice (OC recommended if using Mojave, Catalina or Big Sur). Configure config.sys to scan for Windows and Linux. Boot to BIOS/UEFI and make the Mac drive first in BBS boot order. You should be able to select Mac OS, Win10 or Linux to boot them.
