Yes, you can install several distros on the same hard drive. You just need to make seperate partitions for each distro. In fact, you can use the same /swap and /home partitions across all your distros to save HD space.

Yep, nothing to it. In fact, there's some information on that very subject in the "Getting started" link in my sig. . . .

I used to have slackware 10, fedora 2, fedora 3, yoper and Windows XP on one hard disk.
Nowdays you will find only slackware on my PC, not even windows (uninstalling windows was a really smart move, I'm proud of my self

). You just need to choose a distro from were you'll control the bootloader and add all the other distros.

As everyone in the thread says, yes, it's possible. I have 3.
