Hi!
I have an old MacPro 1,1 in which I would like to mix Ubuntu and MacOSX.
My Native-MAC graphics head is broken, replaced with a standard NVIDIA.
This means that I am not able to use the native boot selector (boot with Alt-key down) since the screen is dark until the graphics driver is loaded.
Since a real Mac does not have any BIOS where I can set the boot device, the only way is to pull the OSX disk out when I want to run Ubuntu.
Is there any way to use any hacintosh bootloaders on a real mac to select which OS to boot?
