I am sure all of you would love to brag about how cool your dual/double booting computer is. Whether its Mac and Windows, Windows and Linux, Mac and Linux or just two versions of the same operating system, its always cool to be able to have direct access to each one of those OS’s on one computer. What most people don’t know is that you can basically have a single computer that is partitioned to have as many operating systems as you like on it, however for practicality’s sake you would only want to install the number of OS’s you actually want or use of course
The following is a tutorial based on hacking the Macbook Pro for three operating systems: Mac 10.5.* , Windows 7 RC7100 , Backtrack 4 (Which are my favorite OS’s
). The Macbook Pro is one of the first of its kind to use an Intel based CPU chip, allowing OS’s like Windows and Linux to be compatible dynamically if partitioned correctly. Just a heads up, this tutorial will take anywhere between 4 – 8 hours, depending on your speeds, so be sure to free some time up as once the process has started, the only going back is starting from the beginning.
