In short - you prepare a multi-boot pretty much as you would a normal single boot, only you include include all distros and the bootloader info in the image. Mind you - I havn't actually done this myself. I'd consider it easier just to create more than one live CD/DVD ... but I guess there is the advantage of a quick evaluation of several (smaller) distributions.
Hmmm I don't think you could do it with CDR/DVD because I think you would have to write data at diff times on the CD, and you could only write once. Might be possible with CDRW/DVDRW but like Simon stated would not really be worth the trouble. just burn separate CD's

Well then you could do it with a multi-session CD-R and duplicate it.
If you have ANY information, please share.
Forget the amount of trouble. I dont care how much work I have to do to create a master. Ill do it if I have the resources.
