Look for it at the Ubuntu website.
I would expect it would be possible to directly install Ubuntu so the Mac can boot straight in to it but I normally run it in a VM using VirtualBox. It is possible to configure VirtualBox to run at start up and startup the VM all automatically even without a user logged in.
This lets you have both OS X and Ubuntu running.
See http://mikkel.hoegh.org/blog/2010/12/23/run-virtualbox-boot-mac-os-x/
and http://grahamgilbert.com/blog/2012/04/21/headless-virtualbox/
and http://rcaguilar.wordpress.com/2013/01/07/auto-starting-virtualbox-vms-on-os-x/
I know how to do it via virtualbox, but would like to boot directly into it. I look around and all of the guides are for older versions of OS X.
