True story: I did get up to 11 distros recently in a multiboot setup on my Thinkpad. I used Refind for the boot manager and everything worked well.
Upvoting for nerf now
Sure! What the hell, throw a couple of BSDs in there too, why not?

yeah, I was thinking about that too. And OpenIndiana as well.
Yes! I missed the heyday of Solaris, so I’ve been sorely tempted to try out OpenIndiana.
I agree with the ball, it would be easier and more convenient to use virtualization, containers or something similar.

Did you ever try to boot one of your other partitions using KVM ?
Did you ever try to boot one of your other partitions using KVM ?
No, I never tried that before.
So, you mean like if I am booted up into Fedora on /dev/sda2
then I use KVM to boot up Slackware installed on /dev/sda6 for example?
Nope, never tried that.Ooh, I’m just learning about systemd-nspawn, now I want to try it.
I’m not hearing a “no”
No
Thank you, finally!!
goes down to 19 partitions
No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.
No?
Debian Testing/Sid.
20-disk RAID5 it is then.
She’s hella cute ☺️
also you forgot Debian
dewit
22, 1 for /home and 1 /home for that one odd distro that does things vastly different.
200 gigabytes per distro?
Oof, didn’t know magic 8 balls ran Windows. Maybe a plan 9 ball would be less biased?
Why would one need anything other than Slackware?
Whole disk LVM2 logical volume with a thin pool. Now you can have as many “partitions” as you like. Enable vdo deduplication and save even more space.
