triple boot/install order for xp/opensuse/leapord osx

how do i get leapord osx not to over write mbr?????

i currently got
160gb
20gb xp pro
5gb open suse
20gb reserved for osx
rest data partition
using grub as boot loader

how do i install kalyway without it over writing my grub boot loader ?!?!?!
i am confused , unless after installing osx i got to boot into win98 start up disk and use fdisk to set xp as my acgtive parition again ? then use chain file loader to add option for osx . but then how would i get linux back ?!?!

you'll need to install, set xp active as you mentioned, and then work with grub directly

Unfortunately, this has been brought up before and due to the legality of installing OSX on a non-Mac cannot be discussed here.

There are numerous sources for you on the rest of the internets though, just cannot be discussed here.

Thank you.
