The word is multi-booting, and you have to edit the menu program depending 
which one you have chosen, i.e.:  Grub or Lilo, but you're right on the 
partitioning of you're hard drive, too.  It would be good to have a persistent 
Home folder on a separate hard drive maybe.  Others will have more info, but 
here's a Google search to get you started:

Welcome, and good luck,

to ask group how to install both Debian & Ubuntu EMC to
 PC?? I can install Debian with CD but not sure how to prepare the HD
 partition so I will be able to install Ubuntu on the same HD and have
 a window to choose which one.
 
 The Debian EMC installs nicely as does the Ubuntu EMC. However I
 missing something as one will eliminate the other when installed
 individually, and vise versa. What is left is the EMC version that you
 last installed.  
 
 Probably has something, I suspect, with preparing the HD partitions
 when asked by the program? Can anybody help? Would like to have both
 EMC's on the HD compliment each other and to be able to choose which??
 Thank you for your assistance.
