Is this possible? (multi-boot question)

[andylyon11]

Would it be possible to run Mac OS X, Win XP/Vista, AND Ubuntu as a triple boot system on an Apple Macbook?

Any answers are welcome.

Thanks

My friend`s (the one that inroduced me to this, damn thing) mac book,
has ubuntu, suse, Xp and mac os running on different sides of a cube, all at the same time. No booting in and out, just rotate the cube.

Have no idea how he`s done that though. That`s waaaaay beyond me.
I`ll ask him though.

Thanks, that would be useful as it sounds good!

I'd hazard a guess at lots and lots of memory and virtual machines.

Well, welcome to Ubuntu Andy! And yes, you can easily do a tri-boot. I know many people have done it, so hopefully someone will post with their details about it all, but here's a couple links you can check out about multi-booting.

I hope some of that can help you out a bit. Also, while you'll find lots of people here who are more than willing to help you out on questions you might have, a lot of times other people have already asked the same questions, so it may be easier (and faster) for you to search the forums, Google, etc. rather than posting here, and having to wait for someone to respond to it. I got through a lot of questions with Ubuntu thanks to the search bar :)

I only would require running one at a time so memory shouldnt a problem - just wanted to know if it was possibly and by looks of it it is.

If I were to say I was doing this on a PC what would the chances of me being sued be. Just curious:lolflag:
