OK.. I have been all night up to solve the triple-boot OSX, WIN 7 and Kubuntu and FINALLY I GOT IT RIGHT.

This method worked for me. Still you have to give credit to this forum author…

I had win 7 installed and then OSX (iATKOS 7) and was working fine. I installed kubuntu and then lost chemeleon. Only Grub was loading that didn,t boot me into OSX. Now I was stuck with ugly grub boot that didn’t boot me into OSX.

After reading several forms, this worked for me.
- using iATKOS install DVD, I installed only chemeleon. (thanks to this forum)
- next, got back chemeleon but I lost win 7 login. I was able to boot into kubuntu and OSX. Tried Win 7 install dvd to repair but didn’t work
- luckly, I had ACRONIS BOOT CD (with Disk Director and true image)
- used this cd and boot into Disk Director. Made win 7 partition active
- Using win 7 install DVD, did repair and this time it worked.
- Now I was only booting into win 7
- booted back into ACRONIS DISK DIRECTOR boot cd and now made OSX partition active.

Thats it..now all 3 OS works…Chemeleon looks awesome.

Good Luck..

@mac some people like to play games on their computers. Or use powerful programs with full use of multiple cores.

Proper macs are not very powerful, and expensive. e.g.

hackintosh can be OC to +4 GHz wheras the Mac Pro is usually <3.4 GHz

windoze is needed to make OSX look better.

Hackintosh?
get a proper mac. and why do you need Windows? you have Mac, and Linux. Windoows is un-needed.

@quixote
grub2 works too, actually it’s easier with grub2.
I installed ubuntu 9.10 and it recognised both win and osx and added corresponding boot entries, and that’s it.
