Well, I am having one small problem. I start with a clean install on a T60 of Windows XP and repair partition. Then create 2 more primary partitions from IBM preload. On #2 I install Mac OX X86 and it boots with Darwin bootloader and can also get windows and repair. Well I would like to have oine more. I am trying Novel SLED, though think this would be the same with any *NIX. When I install the next OS, it taked third partition on breakes it up in to several logigal partitions. I can now boot to windows, SLED, Repair partition, but can not get into MAC now. I get a HFS+ partition error.
Any suggestions?

for me to dual boot, I had to install mac os x last. Then I had to go to diskpart in xp and set os x to be an active partition. Although I'm assuming you've probably followed the same instructions as me to get that far...

I read somewhere the HFS+ error is a problem with the partition. Does not matter as I had other issues so started from scratch
I will either use the Windows or Mac bootloader as I do not want to have to deal with third party boot loaders. Have enough going on.

Check your bootloader settings in GRUB. Make sure you have it set to "noverify"
