Bootcamp in 6 months to have trippleboot?

**Floris** · Jul 20, 2006, 04:03am

How long will it take before we can buy a mac with trippleboot or more?

* 64bit unix/linux distro
* Win64 vista
* Mac OSx 10.5

I do hope so, it will make it worth its money and be a total solution for my workstations.

I hope so too, because that would make my [future] investment into a Mac so much better

I'm not sure if Apple themselves would make it happen, but the open source community could make a loader to do it (if they haven't already?).

Don't know about triple booting...but if that ever happens, i'd wait till most of the problems were taken care of.

You mean running Mac, Windows, and Linix together?

I think using eLILO you can already tripple boot (and more). Just getting hardware drivers for these Apple-specific componenets is problematic.
