Is there info on setting Ubuntu up on a Mac using Bootcamp or do you follow similar procedures as you would while installing Windows?

tnx

Hiya,

You'll only get ubuntu to run without fusion as a dual boot, i.e. you can only use one os at one time, and to use the other one you have to reboot into it. You'll have to set this up, but it can be done with boot camp. It's how I have my macbook pro set up. I don't know about the DOS message. Never heard of that before but my linux experience isn't extensive. Could be the wrong version of ubuntu for your machine - you need an intel compatible one for an intel machine, and a power pc compatible one for a power pc machine, and so on.

Hello, When I went to try and run Ubuntu on my iMac, I got an error message that said, "This program cannot run DOS on this machine." Is there a component that I'm missing? I am running Fusion, too. I understand, however, that it's not necessary to have Fusion running; Ubuntu should be a straightforward installation, should it not? Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage, Alaska.
