Yeah, and gparted allocated partitions not bootable by default =/ Which I think is a little annoying.

Hi!
Annoying? Naaa..I use grub to make partitions active. Ask grub for a command line:
rootnoverify (hd0,7)
makeactive
chainloader +1
boot
Of course..assuming you want to boot from partition #8.
I love gparted. Never, ever trust Winders to partition a drive that you want Linux or Solaris on..it won't let you. Evil, it is..I tell you!
>>>Gone are the limits of having all your OS's on drive 1. You can have OS's on drive two as well.
I draw the line at 8 partitions..so...that gives you the possibility of 16 different OS setups on one server. Endless fun..I tell you!

Or with you just get 16 severs with one partition each.

Hi!
Aye. Possible. However..I'm not sure why you would want that.
The fanciest VPS setup I have ever done was one with one ip..and six apache versions running at the same time..all listening to different ports.
I think I just went up: 80,81,82,83,84,85
Six complete separate installs..quite nifty.
Buh-ya!
