i just noticed with these huge SCSI sca hard drives that i have, when i make like 8 partitions and install different os'es on some partitions.

if i am toggling back and forth between 8.1 - 7.6 and (I think) 7.5.5, from start up disk, all is fine. when i boot up 7.1 it seemed like, no matter what os i choose it would always boot up to 7.1 basically ignoring my selection, however if i booted up 7.6 from my zip drive and set the start up disk that way, it would work fine and reboot from the HD and run those oses again.
