Have 60 systems in my hda so there is no problem to multiboot. The Grub in my box boots 100+ systems as I have hdc, sda and sdb disks too.

You should allocate one partition per Linux and have a common swap for all of them. Install Windows, RH9 and Fedora on their own partition. Use Grub from either Fedora or RH9 to boot all the systems.

I use a single 5Gb partition for most Linux. My RH9 and FC5 are 1.7Gb and 2.6Gb large respectively.

The last link of my signature is a good collection of booting tips.
