I have no knowledge about Macbooks, but inside XP there should be a file C:\boot.ini with an entry for Ubuntu (pointing to wubildr.mbr). Make sure that the entry is there and that the 'timeout' is not set to zero.

To edit boot.ini see this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289022

To view and edit the Boot.ini file:
Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
-or-
Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery.
Under System Startup, click Edit.

Can you help with this problem?
