I never did get it up and running.
I'd forgo the dual boot.

Find the OS you are most comfortable with either Windows or Linux. Install Virtualbox. You'll be able to run any OS of your choice and as many as your resources can handle in virtual machines.

If you need help doing this, just let me know.

All my laptops are setup this way.
