[ubuntu] rEFIT + Partitioning

$
0
0
Hey guys, need some advice from some of you OS X experts....Basically, I want to run a triple boot setup (OS X, Windows 7, and linux). To do so, I know I need to partition my HDD and that is my 1st question. I currently only have 1 partition and OS X is installed on it, what built in app can I use to divide up my 1 internal HDD into 3 parts?

So, after getting my partitions up, should I install rEFIT or Windows 7 first via Bootcamp Assistant? Basically, I am going to guess the path will look something like the below but I don't know how rEFIT fits in given Windows 7 usually installs its own boot manager (MBR) and so does linux (GRUB)....

OSX->partition disk in 3 pieces->install rEFIT->install windows 7->install linux

And then at boot, rEFIT would display everytime and I could pick into which OS to go into, correct? Thanks in advance guys!
