Advice is sought in setting up a system which will have DOS,
FreeBSD and Linux installed and it should be able to alternatively
run them (via boot manager, if possible). The machine is
Pentium/90 with 500MB IDE and 1GB SCSI drives.

Questions:

-- any reasons it's a bad idea?
-- sequence the OS installations?
-- which hard drive should be the primary one?

Thanks!
