After problems trying to get a triple boot system for my Mac Pro, I finally got around to tearing up my hard drive again and downloading Fedora 9 Beta. I am just posting this to let some people know, YES it works, for now at least.

The steps I used are fairly simple:

I partioned my drive with disk utility, on the 10.5 (leopard) install, for 3 partitions. I have a 250 GB (232 GB actual) which is setup for 150 GB HFS+, 40 GB FAT, 42.89 GB FAT (or something like that). The windows on the tail end was a little over 40 GB to make sure Windows wouldn't complain.

I installed Leopard. Booted and installed refit 0.11.

I installed Windows Vista Ultimate x64. Booted a few times then installed EasyBCD 1.72 and BootCamp64. I used EasyBCD and went to Diagnostics, and did a BCD rescue to stop the partition error that tells me to rebuild with a Microsoft compatible fdisk tool...

I installed Fedora 9 x86 x64 Beta. After then FINALLY it booted successfully and works!

The whole time I never used any partitioning tool from refit to rebuild the MBR, I suggest never using that. That corrupted about 2 other installs I tried.

Glad to see Fedora finally supporting the Mac Pro, I heard that Fedora Core 6 worked but I could never find that image...

Good Luck...

Now I am all but a Mac fan, but I heard people who owned one and they were totally excited about their mac and the software.

Why would you buy a mac and put Linux on it? Let alone Vista?

Just asking out of interest.
