Triple booting - OSX-Vista-7

[CoolMe]

Right, I spent hours yesterday trying to get everything PERFECT, but I failed.

I partitioned my HD 3 ways, installed leopard on one partition.

I installed rEFIt using the .dmg package (auto)

vista installed on another patition (NOT using bootcamp)

I installed the bootcamp tools using the CD onto vista

Installed seven on the third partition, but I was greeted with a boot manager missing error so I gave up!

Anyone got any clues before I jump in doing it all again?

I did a fresh install of windows 7 on a PC laptop and it automatically created a 200MB partition. The only file on this partition was BOOTSECT.BAK. I'm a total newbie but I thought this might be a possible reason 7 won't boot with your setup.

I saw the same thing while trying something out in a VM

I wonder if that should be deleted? or modded somehow =/

The 200mb partition you are referring to is the swap partition, best left well alone

Right'o

Does anyone know if you use the boot camp assistant to create the partition that the link is referring to? I've done this too many times to make a mistake this time!
