The combination of Yosemite and the 2015 hardware introduce two new problems: one, Yosemite doesn't think users should be allowed to resize partitions manually and, two, the 2015 Macbook's bootloader doesn't seem to recognize Ubuntu at all. I was pretty sure there must be an easy way to install all three on a single Macbook, and I was right. I found a few detailed instructions around the web on how to run Yosemite, Windows 8, and Ubuntu on one machine, but they all involve significant terminal work and partition juggling, and I was looking for something a bit more straight forward, a bit cleaner. I bought a Macbook Pro a while back which runs OSX 10.10 Yosemite out of the box, and that introduces a few new hurdles. Once that is done you are ready to install Ubuntu (Kubuntu)Linux.I've written about triple booting Macbooks before, but the process has changed recently.
Make sure you can still boot Windows after you have finished doing the partitioning. Keep the Windows partition at the beginning of the drive so there is a 50 GB NTFS partition at the begining of the drive and a 30GB of free space at the end of the drive.
Resize the Windows partition to the desired size. For my system I decided on four for Windows, Linux, Linux Swap and Mac. Decide how much space you want to allocate for each parition. Boot the laptop with the System Rescue CD, after it loads run the QTParted tool, which is a Partition Magic clone. Make sure you have the BIOS setup to boot from the CD-ROM drive.
