Guys --- i want to get Boot Magic to do this. Will it work?:

I want to make 4 partitions on my hard drive. I want to install 2 different OS's. One on C: and one on D:.

When i boot up with C:, i want to see C: (obviously) and E:

When i boot with D:, i want to see D: and F:.

So when i boot with C:, i don't want to see F: or D:, and when i boot with D:, i don't want to see C: and E:.

Is this possible, or do i have to see all 4 partitions all the time?

Many thanks in advance:

Depends entirely on what OS' (and filesystems) you will be using, the partitions may or maynot be seen. Generally speaking Boot Magic and related s/w will work for multi-booting any system, but again depending on your choice of OS it might be unnecessary. Anything higher than Win9x will be able to add on and give you a choice of OS at boot time
