Tripple boot 2012 MBP? OSX/Windows/Linux?

[Rico Muerte]

I have a 2012 non retina MBP & with dual SSDs - 500Gb boot & 1Tb files

Been curious about learning/using Linux for quite some time, & would like to do some mild Windows gaming on it, so curious if anyone else has tripled booted a MBP of this vintage, or done something similar?

Why not simplify with a live boot UFD? Or deeper tinkering with Rapsberry Pi?

Windows with less than 32g of ram will be unpleasant.

I used reFIND when I was triple-booting my 2012 MBA. It can be finicky to get everything working, so expect a road bump or two.

The rEFInd Boot Manager

Lol, where'd you get that from? Windows 10 runs perfectly fine one 4-8 gb's of ram.

If the above statement was true, then just about every laptop with windows on it would be a flawed device.

Edit: Replied to wrong post. Meant to reply to the 32GB post that is now MIA.

The min. requirements for Windows 10 - 64 bit are 2GB...

I meant to reply to the 32GB guy, not to your post. My bad.

Get a Raspberry Pi you will learn everything about Linux and try lots of different distros on there
