    Chimera boots linux from usb; will it boot off a partition?

    So I have a fully working 10.7 hackintosh and I'd like to install Ubuntu alongside OSX with Chimera. I have created a FAT32 partition called "LINUX" and Chimera sees it just fine. I have booted into live distributions off a USB stick just fine as well using Chimera. I have heard that actually...

    Triple Boot only boots Linux

    I was attempting to generate a triple boot with OS X 10.8, Windows 7 Ultimate, and Ubuntu 13.04. Using the Lifehacker Guide as a reference. http://lifehacker.com/5698205/how-to-triple-boot-your-hackintosh-with-windows-and-linux. I created my partitions, installed windows, and installed ubuntu...

    Triple-Boot Setup, Chimera doesn't see Ubuntu on other hard drive!

    Should be a simple answer, I hope. I have a small 160GB HHD running Mountain Lion, with Chimera installed. This is my main boot drive. I also have a larger 500GB drive with Windows, and a small ext4 partition -- that's where Ubuntu is installed. I installed Ubuntu without GRUB so I could use...

    Removing GRUB for Chimera

    I installed Ubuntu on my Hackintosh and accidentally installed GRUB onto the MBR instead of the partition that Ubuntu is installed on. Both ML and Ubuntu are on the same drive, which has a GUID partition scheme. I have a 2nd drive with an ML backup partition. I'm trying to get Chimera back on...

    Dual Boot ML & Ubuntu w/ separate HDDs…

    Since searching the forums has not returned any clear answers, yet, I thought I would ask. I have an older setup that I no longer use and wanted to experiment. Anywho, the system in question--my former Hackintosh, but it's been a while since I've done this: Intel Core2Duo @ 3.0GHz, GeForce...

    HOWTO Use Ubuntu As A Mac OS X Time Capsule

    Preface: In past versions of Mac OS X, the built in backup tool, Time Machine was a lot less picky about where you back up your files to. You could even back up to a Samba file share if you enabled the "unsupported volumes" hack. defaults write com.apple.systempreferences...

    I've just completed my Hackintosh flawlessly with little to no problem. I have 3 hard drives that run all 3 OSes separately. The only problem I'm having now, is that upon starting up OS X, it gives me this error: Basically it can't read the Ubuntu drive due to it's file system, does...

    Ubuntu and Mac OS X on same hard drive

    Hi, I have bought a new hard drive and wish to install both Mountain Lion and Pangolin on the same one. Is there a guide for doing this, as I heard that there were issues with Ubuntu installing GRUB into the wrong partition? I know there is a Dual boot guide for Windows but I couldn't find...

    Triple Boot - 7, OSXML, Pangolin -

    Hi, I have a 120GB SSD with Windows 7 installed on it. What I want to do is be able to boot Mountain Lion and Ubuntu from the same drive. Would I be able to install ML and Ubuntu without uninstalling 7? I really do want to avoid doing this as it has taken me a while to get it all configured...
