“Why Dan,” you ask, “would anyone need anything near that many OS’s?”, and you’d be right to ask. The obvious answer is, no-one. That, of course, didn’t stop JustLinux user saikee from doing just that in an attempt to write a mind-bogglingly complete how-to for the more n00bish of us trying to install just one or two platforms. Despite the almost totally needless overkill that comes with that many systems, it would surely still be cool to be able to pull up LILO at the office and win some money from the guys at work. [via]
