So I can have two bootable partitions one for 1.3 and another for 3.0? I though this was impossible!

Sorry for my stupidity ... is there a guide that shows how this can be accomplished? Also can I have two bootable partitions of the same operating system?

Thanks and Regards,
Sim085

I am interested in having something like with a PC, on start-up you get a menu asking in which OS you want to boot.

By any chance ... is this only possible with an installation of OS4? I have an A500+ and therefore OS4 is definitely out of my reach.
