Right, got the boot discs (and the curiousity to try) to install 2 Operating systems on my rig. If I partition my hard drive, will the second OS be able to access data on the first partition?

And does it show how much I do this sorta thing?

If you have two OS's installed on two partitions then when running either OS you can access data from the other partition.

Note, you can access data. The OS you're running won't be able to access data from the other partition itself, if you see what I mean.

Think of a partition as another hard drive showing up in your 'My Computer'.
