[ubuntu] Please help with Macbook Pro installation

$

Hi guys,

I have a Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) 2.3 Intel Core i7 with 8GB of RAM.

I'm aiming to dual boot Ubuntu with OS X and I'm nearly there. The version of Ubuntu is 13.04 as it's compatible with my computer.

I installed Ubuntu and I'm not getting the "missing operating system" error when I try to boot into it.

I'm using rEFInd as my boot manager. Here is my hard drive layout:

Code:

/dev/disk0
  #:                      TYPE NAME                    SIZE      IDENTIFIER
  0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *500.1 GB  disk0
  1:                        EFI EFI                    209.7 MB  disk0s1
  2:                  Apple_HFS apple                  366.9 GB  disk0s2
  3:                Apple_Boot Recovery HD            650.0 MB  disk0s3
  4:      Microsoft Basic Data                        132.2 GB  disk0s4
  5:                Linux Swap                        133.2 MB  disk0s5

A few things I"m unsure of. I don't know why disk0s4 is called Microsoft Basic Data.

Also, I have messed up that swap partition, haven't I? I honestly don't know what I was thinking when I only made it 133.2mb!!!

Any help is appreciated.
