My only experience is with a SparStation5 (seriously OLD) and a SunBlade
1000 - both backines have 2 x drives internally, so it's a simple matter
of installing each OS on its' own volume...:-)
I seem to remember booting the SparcStation from an external SCSI drive,
but must admit I haven't tried the 'blade that way yet (on the list to
try this weekend !)
