I am confused, or you are confused, or we are both confused.
Trinity is a desktop environment, not an operating system. The mbr doesn't
come into it. Install the relevant operating system, with or without a DE,
then install Trinity from the Trinity repositories as you would any other
software from your distros repositories. Then it cannot muck up your other
OS's.
It is, if you wish, possible to use one of the available Live CDs to install
an OS with Trinity already installed, and the default DE, just as most Debian
newbies install Debian with Gnome and most Ubuntu newbies install Ubuntu with
Unity. But you don't have to do so, and I never do. I install Debian, and
then add Trinity.
