No, Ubuntu didn't goof, it was me! I've had the longest running install of Mac OS X Tiger ever--I resist the urge the reformat daily--AND my Boot Camp setup of Edubuntu was working very nicely, having upgraded successfully to Intrepid Ibex, the latest version of Ubuntu.

Boot Camp is a set of drivers and stuff that lets you run Windows XP or Vista on a Mac. What you do is partition your main hard drive, that is, split the hard drive in two so that it can function like two distinct hard drives; and install your copy of Windows onto the new partition after you have created it in Mac OS X.
