hi there,

i wish to install 5.4-p? and 6.0-current (to be release) on the same disk of
a single
machine for to test the 6-0-current.

however, the disklabel of the recent 6.0-current resist to co-operate with
that of
the 5.4-p?. i.e. when i have installed 5.4-p?, and then 6.0-current,
disklabel information
would be lost.

i had "cd /usr/src/release; make release ........" to produce both install
and boot
CDs for 6-0-current of i386 and amd64 and tried installing for co-existence
of the
5.4-release partitions, in vain: everytime i install the 6.0-current, the
disklabel
on the 5.4-p? were erased.

should any kind folks please indicate the way to make them co-exist on the
same machine?

best regards,

clarence chu
