rEFItting the Mac
Posted by Aaron under Gadgets, Playing Around
If you don't know, Ubuntu 8.10 dropped today. As promised I will be attempting to install it this evening. I say "attempting" because you never know what might go wrong. Anyways, I came across an awesome program called rEFI that enables you to actually control and partition your mac hard drive without being forced into only 2 paritions (OS X and Bootcamp). So this way I can still keep my windows partition for the occasional game and create another partition for Ubuntu. Great! The program installs like any other program under OS X and only took about 5 minutes to get working (4:30 was how long it took for my mac to reboot). Anyways, there are some pics below, and expect an update within the next day or so. Or even possibly tonight!
