Can someone explain to me how? I want to boot off the dvd and select which iso distro to run.

An .iso is a disk image, and contains a whole file system, so as far as I know, only one .iso can go on one disk. Possibly, one .iso can go into one partition. Possibly you could make separate partitions, with one .iso in each partition, but I don't know how to do that on a dvd, only a hard disk. And then, you would have to have a way to boot the separate partitions. Sounds like an interesting experiment.

DVDs aren't that expensive. Why not just put one .iso per DVD, and put whichever one you want into the DVD drive at boot time?
