Yes you can setup multiple partitions on a drive and make them bootable with priorities. This is all done in HD toolbox which is in sys:tools iirc
ok thanks i will have to play with that :)
is it easy to switch between them?

I have 3 boot partitions, OS3.9, OS3.9 WarmUP and 4.0 Classic.
At boot, I press the two mouse buttons, and select the boot partition.
I think it's impossible to switch from one OS to another, in the same partition.
this sounds like the way to go wasn't particularly looking for a menu system
