I have several operating systems that I want to try out. And it is a waste to burn a 600 mb iso image to a 4.7 gb dvd. I was wondering if there was a way to boot multiple OSes from one dvd. I want to put ubuntu-8.04.1, Back Track, Damn Small Linux, Puupy Linux, Zenwalk live, core and standard, ReactOS, RipLinux, Slitaz, and DeliLinux. All together they equal 3.1 GB.

It is most likely possible, but requires some tinkering with ISOLINUX and gensioimage. If you want, you can look at my script (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=718016) and see how it works. It combines distros onto one ISO image, but it doesn't have support for any big 700MB distros like Ubuntu. (It should be possible, but I don't really use DVDs so I'm no that interested in writing code for it.)
