Do Ubuntu and Mac OS X place nice with each other?

Hello Seth

Quite probably, the installation disk will recognise the presence of
another OS, in your case Mac OS X.  In that case you will have an
option to MAINTAIN the existing OS, to PARTITION the disk and than to
install Ubuntu at the empty part of the disk. After finishing the
installation, you will see a menu in which you can choose which OS to
run: Ubuntu or MAC OS X.
Respectfully yours,

Bas.
