Help with humongous installation task


I am planning to install the following OSes

RHEL5
Ubuntu 7.04
Solaris 10

Windows XP
Windows 2003 Server
MS Exchange Server

I have two clean (fresh) 80GB SATA HDDs

I plan to implement RAID 0 on my machine, and would like to know the following:
The order in which i should install the OSes
  • The partition setup for my OSes, ie which ones can be shared (for linux)
Any suggestions for my setupAny issues/problems i may face trying to do this.

This is a more or less a test machine where i can practice my commands and prepare for my course, so dont really need a lott of disk space, just looking for a setup that would work optimally, and would give me the least problems.

Stuff at my site will be useful. From the link below, you will find stuff on partitioning and booting.
As mentioned above, the major multi-booting guru is Saikee.
