Crazy question about OS installation! ;)

[SKAN]

Ok, this is the point:
I'm about to buy a new HD for my good old 1200, and this time I wanna play around with OS installations...
Basicly I just wanna have 2 partitions, one for the OS stuff and one for everything else. Is there any way to install multiple systems in a single partition? I mean: 3.1, 3.5/3.9 and even 1.2/1.3 (provided I've got a Devs/Kickstarts/ full of grabbed roms , multiple startups with multiple setups, the good old exec_v.44 below and so on?...OK, you could say: "Go on with multiple partitions and don't be silly!", but if someone have experienced something similar I would be happy to know...

Thank you very much, you gave me a good point to start from...

That's not gonna work, at all. As soon as you kick an A1200 to 1.3, you lose your scsi.device (AT hard-drive support). Hence, no hard drive available, at all, from that point on...

 Is there any way to "emulate" it somehow? I remember I could easily boot from HD (a590) with an A500+1.3.
I know, it was REAL SCSI and not IDE, but who knows...

Very true, of course.  I just think he wants to do this for the same reason I want to.  It's a cool hack.  And it's fun to show off and mess around with Workbench 1.3.  The stripes are funky.

Now you're talkin'!!!
