Youc can have any number of distros / os. I have debian woody 2
installations, rh6.2 (dunno why it's here).
and debian sid (incomplete). Create seperate partitions and install. Use
grub to boot. Install grub on the mbr with the menu.lst file in the boot
partition of the first installation (/dev/hda4 - grub numbers partitions
from 0. so 4 is 5 - in my case). Edit this file when you create a new
installation. No need to re install grub.
