I came to the problem that I needed to test native linux/unix virtualisation recently. First, I tried to think of the new test box I have to procure, but then I got the idea that I'm not using my current resources to the full: my MacBook Pro i5 8GB RAM. Found this (see a copy in my Google Drive). It was really easy!
All you need is to do reEFInd bot manager and install Ubuntu afterwards. Worked like a charm! And it is very nice performance of Ubuntu on this metal :)
The only annoyance was that my computer stopped to do sleep normally (from OS X perspective). It needed hard reboot every time after a few hours of sleep. Fortunately, upgrade to Yosemite solved this, probably just a fresh reinstall of anything would have helped.
Enjoy!
