Has anyone done this successfully? Thanks ~Ben Honestly, there's very little to it. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/InstallDualbootMacOSX I have an Intel Mac Mini that dual-boots Fedora 9 and Mac OS X 10.5 and an Intel iMac that dual-boots Fedora 8 and Mac OS X 10.5. Its pretty much as simple as resizing your HFS+ partition while under Mac OS X to make room for Linux, then booting the standard x86 or x86_64 Linux installation media by holding down the 'c' key. From there, everything is just like any other computer. -- Jarod Wilson [hidden email] -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
