Hello, do you need to have dual (triple, quadruple) boot, or would you like to hear about other possibilities? I would say: use some kind of virtualization (vmware server, xen, virtual pc ) Doing that, you have not to worry about partitioning and boot loader configuration (which all is possible but will also likely end in a mess). You have the possibilities to play with network between the virtual machines and the host, you can eazy share data between them, and it is eazy to set up. Virtualization ist not a solution for everything but a solution for a lot of things (I'm sure a lot of people here would agree), especially if you want to play around with things. guido
