Forgive my ignorance, but I just had to de-lurk to ask this probably silly
question:
Can't you have multiple kernel images on the same cd, chosen via lilo (or
whatever boot loader is being used) just like when you have mulitple kernel
versions on you computer?
I like the simple approach of "if you have a udma66 hd controller, boot off
of cd #4", but it seems you could have a whole slew of kernels to choose from
on the last cd, which is likely to have plenty of space free for such things.

That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
