Nah, i don't think so, cause there are some procedures to follow that differ a lot from a Linux Distro Installation.

You can install Grub to boot one OSX partition, but.. hm.. if you know that for example iAtkos fits you and installs fine, you can dd a pre-installed/prepared image of the partition with e.g. Gparted Live CD and install grub into it and boot it..

But, the installation doesn't take long for that kind of system, the only problem is the hardware compatibility which is why every installation is a pain in the a$$!

For example at the past i was using ToH 10.5.2 that was inside a disk image of 30gigs and i did dd on one of my partitions and changed the bootloader (even windows one) to boot it.. If i did something to mess that system, i just did another dd and get it back as it was when working..

And i'm suggesting this, if you manage to get a fully (or semi) working system clone it for later use, specially before upgrading it or changing sensitive system files!
