I'm tired of messing with my system ; and Killing it due to screwing up the Boot Loader..

Question? Can I Boot to a Floppy/CD/USB Thumb drive and leave Master Boot Records alone( seperate OS on each HD )..?

That way I will always be able to work on 1 installed OS at a time.

And If YES, Can anyone send/post a File
that can be loaded on same.

I will figure out what to patch to make it work, Just not Linux Literate to do from scratch,

Thanks...

Note: I DO WANT TO ESCAPE MS and use Linux

You could always just get a bunch of cheap HDs and get a swapper deck and install a different OS on each of them?
