Im using a VIN, iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010) and trying to dual-boot ubuntu on it. Whenever I put the .iso file onto a flashdrive with unetbootin, then restart my mac, hold alt, and click on the orange disk, it brings up the try without installing, download ubuntu... page, but when I press enter over any of them, It looks like something starts to run, but then my screen goes black, and about 10 seconds later I hear this sound like some one beats a bongo 3 times fast (not kidding). Ive have partitioned away 80 GB of space for it as well. I know its not the .iso file, because it runs perfectly fine on Virtualbox, just a little slow. Any help is areciated, thanks!

It is possible using Apple's Bootcamp (you can get this off the Mac Appstore) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages Here is a link to the Ubuntu page which tells you what is compatible.
