Karun,

> Do you know how to boot Mac OS X and do a net install?

You don't need to boot Mac OSX to do the install - after you've set up 
the files on the tftp server, just boot into Open Firmware (hold the 
command, option, O and F keys while turning the system on), and then 
type "boot enet". Open Firmware should then download the boot images 
and get you started.

> As I would like to install a dual boot system.

The Ubuntu installer will guide you through the partitioning process to 
allow you to dual-boot.

Cheers,


Jeremy
