Download the refind binary zip on OS X
Unpack it and run install.sh
(on OS X)
Use OS X Disk Utility to resize your HFS+ partition
Download Ubuntu 14.04 amd64 iso image and write it to a USB flash drive
Reboot and hold option key after you hear the bell, to start Startup Manager
Insert USB drive and select it. Ubuntu 14.04 installer will start.
At partitioning stage:
/
(and set up swap if you created a partition for it)At Grub install stage, Grub will detect an EFI system and install a boot loader to the EFI partition on /dev/sda1
At end of install, remove USB drive and reboot
Refind will load and show you the option of booting OS X or Ubuntu. Choose Ubuntu.
