Booting Ubuntu 13.10 partition through Parallels 9 on MBPr

Afternoon Everyone,

I use a Macbook Pro Retina with OSX Mountain Lion installed, Windows 7 Professional (Bootcamp) installed and Ubuntu 13.10 installed. I would rather not go into the reason why I wanted 3 OS on my MBPr, please just note that I do require & prefer certain OS's for various reasons.

I have Parallels 9 installed and it boots my Windows 7 Bootcamp partition properly. My question is if there is any way I could have Parallels 9 do the same for my Ubuntu 13.10 partition? I did not want Ubuntu installed as a pure VM as I was worried I would suffer performance issues when running heavy computational problems; at the same time though I would like to quickly access my Ubuntu partition for simple things like checking files, moving stuff across, doing quick installs while still using my other OS's etc...instead of having to constantly do reboots for such tasks.

Please let me know if this would be possible for my Ubuntu partition and the steps required, thank you.

Regards,

John

 

No, there isn't.
