Actually, you can have only 3, since each OS is setup on a separate 
PRIMARY PARTITION.  You are only allowed 3 primaries and one extended per 
hard drive.  However, I haven't tried to setup a PRIMARY with a second 
HD and see if one could use it as well.

BTW - Boot Manager takes up ONE primary partition, leaving 2 for OS's.  I 
have primary 2 as OS/2, and primary 3 as DR DOS (NOT ms-DOS <--lower case 
intent correct!).  The rest (extended partition), is for PROGRAMS.

CR.
