meshica7 is on a distinguished road
I understand that I need to install Windows using Boot Camp in order for the Linux distro to recognize the partition and use it for the Linux install (am I correct here?).If this is the case,would it be possible to use the Linux installer (like the one in PC Linux) to "erase entire disk (Windows) and install Linux"?Or do I need to keep Windows and install Linux in the free-space? I plan on installing either PC Linux or Kubuntu for a Mac/Linux dual boot and have no need for Windows or the loss of space that it would use.
Concerning rEFIt. Is this app essential? Does Boot Camp not recognize the Linux install? It just seems a lil' involved for me at this point but I will give it a try if it is recommended.
Thanx for your time!

Juan
