Idea #2458: Multiboot with other flavours of Linux?

I being a sys admin, like to test out the capabilities of different flavours of Linuxes. And I don't have many systems at my disposal. I don't know about Gutsy, but earlier versions of Ubuntu ,all of which I had tried, had a problem with working on existing partitions. It just didn't allow other linux partitions installed before it to co-exist. It used to delete the existing the partitions that are there and it just doesn't want to install on a pre-existing /boot partition. I had to manually do an fdisk and do the needful. I just don't like this thing about Ubuntu. I don't want to say this but FC and Open S... don't have this problem.
