It's not that simple. The new Macs, like the old ones, don't have the PC style BIOS but use EFI. Grub, as far as I know, doesn't do EFI yet. There is a EFI enabled lilo though, called "elilo." Apple has released a tool called Bootcamp, that allowes you to install WindowsXP (heaven knows why they had to go do that), which adds a PC-style boot record/partition table, and allows it Windows to boot. That's the starting point. There are some howtos already for getting linux to boot on it too. Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
