		If you want to multi boot  for experimenting, I have a setup that does,

			Partition 1-   Bootmanager 
			Partition 2-   DOS (with win 3.1) and OS/2
			Partition 3-   Windows 95 and Windows NT
			Partition 4-   RedHat Linux 5.2

		The active partition is the Boot manager and from there you can choose
the OS that you want.Four partitions is the limit for Boot manager. You
could try the System Commander if you wanted to multi boot more OSs, I
haven't got around to it yet. You could use the above setup and choose the
OSs that you 
want to checkout.Hope this is of some help.
