Dual boot possible?

Hey all!

Has anyone made a dual boot Tru64 box?

A have a single CPU DS20e running 4.0F

I'd like to make it dual bootable, 4.0F and 5.1

Alternatively, I have two hard drives in the machine. Could I just swap the
secondary one into the primary slot and install 5.1 on there, and just swap
hard drives every time I wanted a different OS?

Or, I imagine, I could just type a different boot command on the console to
boot from the second disk.

We're working on software for Tru64 here and we need to be be able to test
on both versions.

Cheers,

Irvine Short
