quadruple booting help

Mac first then Windows then Linux. 

Reason: Mac knows how to handle Windows, Linux knows how to handle Windows and Macs while Windows can't handle anything and will BSoD itself after sneakily deleting all your Linux partitions.

I have not installed MacOS except in a VM so this may be wrong but you might want to install Windows 7 first, then Windows 10, then MacOS and finally Linux. My reasoning is that Windows 7 is the most ignorant of other OSes during its install process. Windows 10 will likely give you the option to preserve the ability to boot into Windows 7 during its install. MacOS will likely detect both Windows 7 and 10, and give the option to preserve booting into both of those during its install. And finally Linux will definitely pick up the other three and add them to the GRUB boot loader menu during its install.

 

Never done this myself, though, so proceed with caution. Good luck!
