So how many OS's do you boot and what are they?

i run 3

98se, XP Pro and Ubuntu 6.06

(yes i know that 40 is very unrealistic but there might be just one person who does boot that many)

Edited September 7, 200619 yr by awergh

right now im booting vista and xp x64. but at other time ive had up to 5 at once...

just the one, XP Pro, for me to messy with other OS's

tired it b4, just wound me up, but thats me. Dual booting is good for those who use it

I use 4

1.- Windows 98 SE

2.- Windows XP Pro

3.- Windows Vista RC1

4.- Mandriva Linux 2007

And in the XP VMware other 5, 3 linux diferent distributions and 2 XP.

I need a life !!!

Between my personal machines I boot roughly 10 OSs depending on the role and task. So I picked 10-20, but I doubt if I get anywhere near 20.

My faves:

Win2k

Win2k3

OpenBSD

Various flavors of Linux

I always dual boot with two operating systems.

On the machine I'm using, its dual booting:

Windows XP Pro SP2

Windows Server 2003

On the other machine:

Windows XP Pro SP2

Windows 2000 Pro

just one

[X] just one

I only use 1 OS at a time - Xp Media Center. When testing Vista, I just make a ghost image of xp and store it on a different partition.

Windows XP Pro Sp2

Windows Vista RC2

Unburtu

Unburtu

Ubuntu? lol

I boot Microsoft Windows XP Professional

That's All!!!!

I cannot have more than 4 different *types* of OS becoz of the 4 primary partition limitation as i hav only one HDD

( why is such limitation ???, 512 byte mbr ?)

with 1 primary windows partition i boot XP, XP x64,2k3,

Vista need another primay partition otherwise (if in logical) it remap C: drive

linux dont need any primary partition if u use GRUB

so i install Ubuntu, SuSE & Fedora,debian

Then with another primary HFS+ use Mac OS X

the rest 1 primary partiton for any OS => for testing (if available -when vista installed in logical)

so total abt 8+

I boot 5 OS :

1. NT 4.0

2. Win 2000 Adv srv

3. Win XP Familial

4. Win 2003 R2

5. Linux Centos

Just 2 will do me, Xp Pro Sp2 and ME
