I'm pretty happy right now because after eight agonisingly long hours of failing, i've finally managed to dual boot OSX Leopard and Windows 7. I know it's Leopard and Snow Leopard and Lion are out, I plan to upgrade soon but i'm enjoying it while it's working :)

Thats nice! Does Leopard use GRUB to boot? Did you use EasyBCD to manage the boot process?

I recently managed a dual-boot with Windows 7 and Linux Mint 12......feels good to crack that side of things....

I created a 100GB partition for Leopard and I added a boot record for it before I had installed it so I wouldn't have any trouble booting into Windows after it was installed. After I click Leopard on the Windows boot screen, it takes me to a Chameleon Boot Loader which I can choose what partition to boot from.

Isn't GRUB the Ubuntu bootloader, you're wanting to boot a bootloader from Chameleon bootloader? :sarc::shock::confused:

Yep, GRUB handles most of the Linux distros.....Chameleon is specific to Mac. It would be nice if GRUB looked nicer.....

You can boot straight into Ubuntu/OSX/Windows from Chameleon. You need OSX initially installed though :(
