Why not?

I would definitely make sure you also include beOS and OS/2 in a hexa-boot configuration for maximum compatibility.

come on, do a linux from scratch boot, i just messed mine up

though, you may want a 5th partition when you do this for data, so it is easy to swap between the OS's easier

If you are to have than many OSes, you might as well get 2 HDs, one for the OSes and one for the "shared" data. What do you plan on doing with the "other" OSes? If you use them just to "experiment" and don't need top performance from them, you can probably just run them in VMs.

The only person who can "recommend" such a setup is yourself. One of my PCs quad boots (the other triple boots) - it's easy to do. If you need it, just do it.
