Intel Macs - OSX, Windows... and... Ubuntu?

Is it or will it be possible to boot into linux distros with the new intel macs? Bott camp allows easy access to WinXP... But I would very much like to have partitions for OSX, Windows, and Ubuntu...

Thanks,
Tyler
 
I do remember seeing an article somewhere recently about setting that up, so it shouldn't be too difficult, but I don't have a Mac to test it out on.

It can be done, but Linux does not have the drivers.

What drivers, its pretty much a PC? As far as I know everything will work except for the wireless, because Broadcom cards suck and so does the company that makes them.

Wireless, video, sound (i think).

It's pretty useless.

The only part that might not work out of the box is wireless, AFAIK the sound and video is pretty standard stuff. And since Apple seems to be in bed with Broadcom I would bet that the wireless is another bcm43xx chipset and a driver for that is being worked on, it's just hard without any specs.
