Hi,
That is good for you to have quad boot.
What configurations are you looking for, and what version of the distro?
What is the specs in your particular hardware for OSX setup?

iPC OSx86 10.5.6 Universal PPF5 (Final), these are my specs

# Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 2.13 GHz processor
# Intel Centrino 2 mobile technology platform
# 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM
# 320 GB hard drive
# DVD±RW DL drive
# No floppy drive
# Integrated NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GS w/512 MB GDDR3 VRAM
# Integrated High-Definition audio with built-in Altec Lansing speakers
# Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet
# Integrated 802.11g Wireless LAN
# 2.0 MP Webcam and microphone built into LCD bezel
# Built-in 5-in-1 digital media card reader
# Keyboard with TouchPad and key pad
# 15.4-inch WXGA+ widescreen LCD (1366 x 768)

what drivers should i select to have a proper running system for my mac?

Hi,
That is more or less advertising specs, not what your OSX is looking for.
What chipsets model and number, lan model and number, SATA or IDE drive and controller type, wifi model and number, your BIOS settting options.

For your multiple boot, did you already prepare hard drive partitions for your os's? What types? Do you have plan ahead to fix MBR during os's installation?
You have plan for bootloader and its proper partition?

my specs via CPUZ







have partitioned my hard drive with NTFS type and will use rEFIt loader. i will do mac first and move on from there. Isnt MBR fix done through cmd on vista/win7 using

C:\> MbrFix /drive 0 fixmbr /yes

C:\> MbrFix /drive 0 fixmbr /vista /yes

Hi,
For customization you just have to try.
You CPU could take a vanilla kernel.
South bridge is ICH9 fix.
PS2
Video don't select driver. NV 9800 may need video injection.
Lan driver
Wifi if have driver
The essentials and fixed.
Keep it at minimal, and should choose only one per category.
Regards,
